Updated - FaceBook.com Updates iPhone App, Rendering it Inaccessible for VoiceOver Users

Recently, FaceBook.com updated their iPhone application to version 3.0. Apparently, no attention to accessibility was paid, as the app has gone from being a fantastic interface for VOiceOver users, to being entirely inaccessible. The application now consists of endless unlabeled buttons, and an exploration throughout the app reveals no other information anywhere.

We are advising VoiceOver users not to upgrade the iPhone application.

We encourage all VOiceOver and iPhone users to contact FaceBook regarding this unfortunate leap backwards in accessibility of their iPhone application by clicking here.
