Thanks, Joe and Patrick.

Joe, that's where I was thinking for the app, but I was concerned that it
was an app written for IOS and probably uses java to emulate the gestures
used by a IOS device, but I'm concerned whether or not it will use the VO
gestures. I can't get my hands on it to test it.

Patrick, you've hit the nail on the head there. It is indeed cross-compiled
and packaged as a native app.

As this app is only to be used on IOS devices, could it be that some of the
WCAG 2.1 guidelines go too far, even for level A? Yes, the new ones under
2.1 for mobile will be relevant, but wouldn't the IOS mobile guidelines be
more useful?

Cheers
