To be clear: VoiceOver is primarily for the blind and low vision communities, whereas Voice control is for the motor or mobilities disability community. We may benefit from Voice Control as some have stated, but we're not the target audience. Just like VoiceOver is not meant for someone who uses a

I don't know. Hope Apple isn't planning on slowly replacing VoiceOver with this VoiceControl? I can't realistically see how both features can co-exist, and work optimally. It seems like they're trying to extend the accessibility of VoiceOver (Benefited only the visually impaired community) in

But the grid is going to help people who can’t actually touch the screen. They will be able to see the numbers and just ask voice control to interact with such and such a number command or whatever. And that grid should also mean that they’re going to have labels or they could have labels at lea

I think they're relying a lot on the grid though and that won't be acessible ot us, or I imagine it technically is but by the time you try to figure out the assignments, what will be the point? So I hope the feature works well enough without the grid. I'm OK about the headphones part, just concerne

Even if we can't use Voice Control right away, we'll stil benefit from it indirectly. First of all, developers need to label their apps using the accessibility AP so they can work properly with Voice Control. VoiceOver will also be able to use these labels so that's a big win for us. And then, ther

I heard an interview with a couple of Accessibility folk from Apple, who said that at least for now, unless you use headphones, you’re not going to be able to do much with voice control. I suppose that makes sense, because voiceover talking to us would probably interfere with voice control. I st

It will be really interesting to see how well voice control works with VoiceOver, if it does because that combination has never been mentioned by Apple - including how they manage us getting past the passcode lock screen without touching the screen! Folk with macular degeneration and Parkinson’
