Then let's see how long it would take a blind person using Excel or Numbers on an iOS device to accomplish a variety of tasks which let's say would take me 1 hour in Excel on a PC. I am thinking of setting up a workbook say with a separate sheet for each day of the month where one would enter say sales amounts including taxes, how much each day was sold using Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Debit Card, Cash, Gift Certificates etc. At the top of each sheet should be the date and it should be set up so that if the date on the first day of the month is input, e.g. December 1, it is displayed as Saturday, December 1, 2018 and then all other 30 sheets in the workbook should have a formula referring to that date field on the first sheet to display the correct date. Then sheet 1 should actually be a summary sheet where all the values for each field are added up so one would see monthly totals for sales volume, returns, net sales, taxes, the various tenders etc. I would be extremely surprised if the blind person using Excel or Numbers on an iOS device can accomplish this in the same time as the blind person using Excel on a PC with Jaws or whatever their choice of screenreaderis.
