app store search results using VoiceOver

Ever since IOS 6.x.x came out,

Whenever I do a search for an app inside the app store on my iphone/ipad,

the results that come up,

How do I swipe left and right to see the next app in the search results list with VoiceOver on?

When I try the 3 finger swiping left / right thing, it just gives me the sound it makes when your at the

end of the search results, which I know isn't right,

like if I do a search for 'facebook' I know there are at least 5 maybe more search results that come up,

but with VoiceOver on, it won't let me swipe left / right to the next rearch result,

how do you get it to do this?

I've had to turn VoiceOver off and swipe left right to get to next and previous search results

there's got to be a way to do this with VoiceOver on.

thanks

Hi

Have you figured it out yet? It took me a minute to figure out, you need to swipte until you hear

until it says the name of the app and gives app developer and rating then when you wipe again it will say the price, when I swipe to the right after that, it moves to the next app. This is on ios 7, I believe it worked differently on ios 6 and below. I wish there a way to change the search results into a list view.

Hope this helps

Thanks

I went back to my iPhone 3GS and attempted to duplicate your issue and sure enough, once you search for an app, your able to access that 1st app but there is no way to move to the next app. That iPhone 3GS is running ios 6.1.3 and unfortunately cannot be updated to ios 7.
