Can’t access search field of by again/previous orders page in Amazon iOS app

FYI, using voice dictation so forgive any screwy spellings etc. I have the latest versions of iOS and the Amazon iOS app and for the past several weeks I cannot set voiceover focus inside the search field when on the buy it again or orders pages of the app. I double tap on the edit field but I never get the on-screen keyboard. I even tried turning VoiceOver off with my finger hovered over the field, single tapping it and turning voiceover on again but still no luck. Anyone else having this issue?

Hi. I don't use that app often, but if I remember right, try doing a single finger double tap, but on the second tap, leave your finger on the screen. I guess they call that a tap and hold? I'm not sure of the correct terminology.

Good luck!

In the Amazon App, when you go to the buy it again places, there’s usually a link you can double-tap on for the item. Also on the first page when you open Amazon, if you flick right a little, you will hear “Voice search”. If you double-tap on this and just say what you’re looking for, Alexa will help you find it. Good luck!
