Hello List,
Just noticed the the All Access Talking Menu update is out. The app does seem a bit more streamlined and interestingly enough when I went to "Nearby" it went straight into the listing for a restaurant here called "Alpenhorn", I assume maybe because it's the first alphabetically. This restaurant didn't even show up before in the app, now it is there and has the Menu with descriptions and pricing. very nice. However, maybe Todd can answer this, after each menu category as well as after each dish within the categories there are anywhere from 1 to 3 unlabelled buttons which don't seem to do anything, I assume maybe they are pictures and, if so, couldn't they be hidden to make swiping through the dishes a better experience? Also, it would be nice if that z-gesture for activating the back button could be implemented. I find it more intuitive and faster than to find the back button at the top left each time and use it a lot in apps where it works. Lastly, how do I get back to the listing of restaurants? I am placed straight into the listing for "Alpenhorn" when I tap on Nearby. I am on the main screen with the following layout: Top Row: Back button at the top left Alpenhorn Bistro and Bar button in the middle Help button at the top right Under Back is the Menu button and it is the first swipe right from "Help". Under Help is the Map button and it is next if you swipe right again after menu. Underneath Menu (on the left side) is Phone and it comes after Map if you continue swiping. Under Map (on the right side) is a Web, button, once again, it's another swipe right after phone. Last is the Weather button and I seem to only get to it by swiping right one more time from Web, if I move my finger around the screen to explore I can only find Menu and Phone on the left and Map and Web on the right. OK, so I just did a 3-finger swipe up and Voiceover said "Page 2 of 3" and now the Weather button was there right under "Back" which means the other 4 buttons on page 1 were now off the screen. There is a page 3 of 3, but it still only has Weather. All in all, it's much easier and faster to swipe to the button you want since there are only 5 and, I guess in cases where there is no menu, there would only be Map, Phone, Web and Weather. If I double tap on "Back" from the main screen of the "Alpenhorn Bistro and Bar" I get Back at the top left, "Results" in the middle and "Help" at the top right. However, the rest of the screen is blank, i.e. Voiceover says "Empty List" which is strange since it did go straight into the one restaurant and in the last app there were quite a few listings for my town. A 3-finger swipe down says "Refreshing Content", but still nothing shows up in the list. Across the bottom I see 4 categories, "Select All", "Select American", "Select Bakery" and Select Bar/Pub/Brewery". A 3-finger swipe from right to left tells me it is now on page 2 of 7 and 4 new categories show up: Select Bbq, Select Select Chinese, Select Coffee/Tea and Select Deli/Sandwiches. If I double tap on "Select All" it goes right back into Alpenhorn Bistro and Bar and I seem to be unable to see or select any other restaurants. In fact, when I first double tap on "Nearby" on the main screen of the app and touch the screen in the middle it says "Accessing All", but once again, the list is empty and it goes straight into Alpenhorn Bistro and Bar. OK, Todd, how much is Sascha, the owner of the Alpenhorn paying you for doing this *smile*. There is also a "Search for Business by Type" button on the main screen, but it does the same thing, it goes straight into "Alpenhorn Bistro and Bar". It would be interesting to find out if others experience the same thing, i.e. if it goes into an "A" listing for where they live with nothing else on the list. I know Todd monitors the list, so I look forward to any comments as well as reviews from other users.
