Yikes. That is kind of scary. I'd love to hear if there is any resolution on this...sounds like the Amazon right hand might not have known what the left hand was doing.

I'm assuming that someone over at Amazon misunderstood what VoiceOver does and thought that it may interfere with Alexa.

Wow. That's a really poor move. Hope this gets resolved and fixed quickly.

There's a lot of good talent working at Amazon, and accessibility has become A core company value, so I'm counting on them to fix this mistake quickly. :-)

Oops! Made a mistake on my last post and can't see where or how to edit.
The decision to block Alexa while VoiceOver is running is ridiculous. I too think it came from a place of ignorance as to what VO does and they should rectify it ASAP. I was thinking of trying this app out before I heard about this nasty buh.
