I had the same issue on BET 106 & Park and more recent on Twitter #Music
I've filed a radar asking for a phonetic name in the info.plist http://www.openradar.me/radar?id=2930403
Dupes appreciated.

>> Is there an equivalent to accessibilityLabel for the application name? For example all the Angry Birds apps are called "Angry Birds" and the user must look at the icons to figure out which one is which. A VO user likely can't see the icons so every app will have the same name without any way to distinguish them. Another example is a Bank of America app called bofa. In both cases it would be useful to add an alternate label that is not otherwise displayed but would be announced by voiceover as the app name such as "Angry Birds Seasons" or "Bank of America App" etc.
