A few days ago, I made a post talking about BitLife on iOS. I’m a visually impaired user who needs to use assistive technology in order to play the game. Specifically I use the iOS screen reading software called voiceover.

Up until now, all three games have been completely accessible with voiceover. I have been able to play all three games for years with no issues. However, recently every single time I try to open BitLife, voiceover doesn’t work. I can’t click on anything or swipe or read anything. However, today I noticed that both DogLife and CatLife are still completely accessible. Does anyone know what update caused VoiceOver to stop working on the main game and if it’s going to be fixed? Is there any way I can fix it myself? Are the developers aware of this? Is there any reliable way I can bring this to their attention?

I’m visually impaired and have been able to use this app for several years now. One of the biggest reasons why I love this game so much is because it’s accessible for me. I use the iOS screen reading software called voiceover, and have always been able to do so with this game, but I tried to play several times yesterday and it wasn’t working.

VoiceOver can no longer recognize anything on the screen. I can’t click on anything or read anything. Basically, at the moment the game is unplayable. Does anyone know what happened and if it can or will be fixed?

I am visually impaired and use a screen reading software called voiceover. It’s specifically the screen reader for iOS devices. This game has always been totally accessible with VoiceOver, like it can read everything and all of that, but I just tried to open the app and play and nothing is being read. Voiceover can’t recognize anything on the screen at the moment. Does anyone know what happened and if it’s getting fixed? I love this game and I’ve bought lots of the packs and stuff.
