Ambiance | VoiceOver Review

Rated three stars out of five.

 

 

Developer:  Urban Apps
Version:  3.3.8

Using iPhone 3Gs, version 5.01

Originally Reviewed: January 16, 2012

Pros:

  • Use of the app and navigation is easy enough with VoiceOver enabled. All elements of the program are accessible and have a fairly short learning curve.

Cons:

  • For the best results and easiest time using this program, single finger left and right swipe gestures work consistently. Merely moving your finger around the screen results sometimes in VoiceOver focusing only on a specific part of a button or description. Which can be annoying.
  • Some buttons are unlabeled, leaving them a mystery as to what they do until tapped on.
  • Going through lists within category sections either within the Store or Library can be slow using VoiceOver. For some reason, it takes a second or two for VoiceOver to catch up with what is currently displayed on the screen.
  • Controls within the Ambiance Player itself are disappointing attempting normal touch navigation.

Breakdown:

The program overall is worth its price regarding compatibility with VoiceOver. While there are some rough edges, and small things which at first stand out, when used to navigating the app and downloading sounds the experience gets better with time.

Download Ambiance from the iTunes Store. ($2.99)
