IMHO, Android won't be worth it unless the accessibility is built in for all. If Apple can build it in to each unit, so can the rest of them. If I didn't get the screen reader with the android phone for free and had to pay for it, it would be a game changer. Those days of buying a cell phone and then having to buy the accessibility are over for me. ----- Original Message ----- From: Ricardo Walker To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Sunday, May 19, 2013 9:19 AM Subject: Re: Apple iPhone versus android software
Hello, That is definitely not the case. Android is very accessible to blind and low vision users. In my opinion, its a bit behind as far as accessibility goes compared to IOS but, not by much. I would even venture to say, they might even be on par in a year or so. I do prefer IOS at this point though. From a blind perspective, its just more refined. JMO.
