The Daily and Accessibility

Lioncourt:

Unfortunately, though the Daily’s web site appears to be largely accessible, no effort to make use of Apple’s accessibility API’s is particularly discernible within the application. Outside of a few unlabeled buttons and the major section categories, nothing else in the app is available to VoiceOver users.

A true shame. They started with a blank slate on a platform that has decent accessibility features, and they don’t support any of them.
