Voiceover and Apple Intelligence for a visually impaired user with limited dexterity
Hi everyone, I’ve searched the discussions but couldn’t easily find a discussion that matched my query.
My partner used to use Voiceover, as she is visually impaired. But sadly, as she acquired a brain tumour and lost even more eyesight and then dexterity, she can’t really use it per usual methods.
we did buy her an Apple IPhone 15, trusting that Apple Intelligence might save the day, making intuitive, voice driven command of the Apple system possible.
Either I’m ignorant or too ambitious about the possibilities of such tech, but I would hope that one day, Anna could pick up the phone, and simply ask Siri to read the screen being displayed. Anna has some vision, enough to be able to scroll the screen, so could just ask the whole screen to be read, or, ‘Siri read this email for me’?
she finds VO too hard to use in its current guise, too hard for her to remember to double tap etc.
happy to discuss offline if needed.
