Even Tiny Updates to Tech Can Be Obstacles for the Disabled

"For me, every step forward in making things lighter and smaller is a
new obstacle. Often, the buttons I need to hit are too small, the
screen too sensitive, or the glare off the screen too distracting to
allow me to make use of my device. Updates to operating systems or
apps that create slight changes to the size and position of buttons
throw me off for days. While these changes might go unnoticed by a
typical user, I endure a relearning process that slows me down and
makes it more difficult to communicate." -- Paul Kotler
