Okay, so I took the plunge last night and updated to the latest version of VDR, and I still can't get things to work. God, Apple, you're super annoying the crap out of me right now! Why'd you have to go and set restrictions on in-app browsers? Anyway, I tried everything I can think of with this link. It's a link to a Cool Blind Tech podcast. Yes, I know I can just go find it in downcast, but not everything's in downcast. Anyhow, the link is to a page with an explanation of the podcast, with a link to play it or download it. I double-tapped and held on the play link, which brought up a share option. When I selected save to Voice Dream, it looked like it was going to make a text file in VDR with the link as the text in the file, which is not what I wanted. so I did a regular double-tap on the link, and the podcast started playing. I pressed the exit full screen button, and got another share button. Great, I thought. It'll work this time. Nope. After pressing save to Voice Dream, I was presentedwith a pop up with a save button and a done button. Also buttons for article, pdf, and fulltext. Both article and pdf buttons were dimmed, so I left them alone. When I pressed the save button, the pop up stayed up. I went to check on the progress of the file in VDR after a minute or so, and nothing was there. I repeated the process, this time hitting done instead of save. This time, the pop up closed, and the file still wasn't in VDR! i could chuck my phone across the room at this point! What on Earth am I doing wrong? Arrgh!
