I've been using the drop scale https://www.amazon.com/Drop-Scale-Connected-Step-Step/dp/B00TTY34KG/ref=sr_1_1?crid=18IP048LO8JAV&keywords=drop+scale&qid=1648004603&sprefix=dropscale%2Caps%2C173&sr=8-1 for the past four years. It measures to the gram. It's completely accessible or at least for what I use it for. I don't really use it for the recipe aspect. Just the scale part. I roast my own coffee beans and make my own coffee. So weighing out the beans for grinding and water for brewing for Pour-over, Aeropress, iced coffee Frenchpress, accuracy to the gram is necessary to be able to replicate a good brew. I mean, I use it for other stuff in the kitchen, but I'm the coffee guy in the house. My wife will go on a rampage if she doesn't have her daily coffee. The company still puts out regular app updates and they've even reached out to me in the past when I've written them about an accessibility hiccup here or there with an update. The other day, I was wiping down the counter and knocked it on the floor and it's still working. Connectivity is pretty quick and VoiceOver reads out the weight in realtime as it fluctuates when you're adding or subtracting whatever it is you're weighing when it's focused on that field. All in all, a very good product. When I bought it, it was closer to $60, but looks like it's $30 now. An even better deal. I do have a talking thermometer that can measure up to 500º Fahrenheit but can't remember the name of the company right now. That one is a straight up talking device. No iOS app or anything. It looks like there are a few options to choose from on Amazon though.
