### 2/5 — I can not access the free Joe and Charlie tapes..

*2026-08-07*

I am totally blind and use voice over on a I Phone 14 Pro. The app does not allow me to play any of the tapes listed.  It seems either the app is not accessible to blind people or there is some sort of charge. If there is a charge of some kind it is not listed. Using voice over all the time the app seems to be not accessible using voice over. Pretty disappointing… hopefully, some work on the app is coming in the near future.
