I read mail from this list on my PC, which does not have iTunes, so I know what you mean. However, if I want to save a message that contains a link to an app, I forward that message to my personal Email address which I have set up on my phone. When I tap an iTunes link in iOS Mail, it opens the page in Safari, then jumps to the entry for the app in the app store on its own.

It is those for articles that I use and find myself annoyed because of all the stuff I have to get through before the article is found that sparked my interest only. -----Original Message----- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Eileens Misrahi Sent: Wednesday, May 08, 2013 10:08 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Reflections on posting app notifications Hello List, Never in my right mind did I think I would generate such a discussion about posting info on a app that others would be interested in. For those that need to have things given to them on a silver platter, get a life. I have been a member of this list for a few years and I can think back when others would request for a link to a specific app recommended or the cost of an app. This would irritate me because they wouldn't take the time to look it up for themselves, but I would never be rude to them. The only way one can grow is to take ownership and responsibility for obtaining the info for themselves. Like others on this list, I am gainfully employed and have limited time at times to post a elaborate email regarding a full detail info on an app or all the features that makes it terrific. Thanks for the kind words and support from the list. It is my suggestion that if list members want to belittle another list member for not meeting their high unrealistic expectation that they be place on monitor status. It's hard to have to deal with some of the rudeness from sighted individuals, to be subjected to rudeness from the blindness community. I will continue to enjoy the list, but will think twice of posting info to it. I don't have time for this kind of treatment in my life. Thanks for listening anD I will close this subject.
