It is deeply exasperating to me that Apple continue to increasingly fuck accessibility of Apple Books, especially with braille. I'm currently reading a book to my son in the evenings. Here are just two of the bugs I have to deal with while trying to enjoy this with him, breaking the flow of my reading:
1. When the page turns, often the cursor will jump to the bottom of the screen, so I have to jump to the top and down four elements to continue reading.
2. Sometimes, the cursor randomly jumps to the start of the paragraph while I'm reading and continues to do this randomly every 30 seconds or so.
"Why not use an alternative app?" you might ask. I would, but DRM means that i can't. And these fucking big profit-above-people companies wonder why people resort to piracy. Because apparently, when you pay for something, you actually get a shittier experience.
