Seeking VoiceOver testers for Roost — a private home-maintenance + pantry app (TestFlight, pre-launch)

Hi everyone,
I'm an indie developer about to launch Roost, an iPhone app for home maintenance and pantry tracking — keep on top of when filters, smoke-alarm batteries, and warranties need attention, log food with expiry dates, and get "use it up" recipe ideas. It's local-first and private: no account, no ads, no tracking, and a one-time $14.99 purchase, no subscription.
I've built Roost with VoiceOver in mind and tested it as best I can, but I'm sighted, and I'd really value honest feedback from VoiceOver users before launch — unclear labels, awkward focus order, anything that feels clumsy or breaks the flow. Catching it now means I can fix it in the launch build.
It's free to test on TestFlight:

If you give it a try, I'd love to know how the main flows feel with VoiceOver: onboarding, adding an appliance and a maintenance task, and adding pantry items. I'll be reading every reply and fixing what I can. Thank you for your time.
