I’m not sure if the author is aware of the Apple Vision announcement, but that will be a giant leap forward for the disabled since it primarily relies on eye tracking for interaction.
To my knowledge, iPad and iOS have been a leap for accessibility. Prior, you’d have to spend thousands on speech setups instead of a few hundred.
Its walled garden also affords accessibility given that there’s much less of a chance for adware and malware to infect people’s devices and confuse them due to the much lower complexity compared to linux, Windows and even Max OS

- dagmx 3y agoActually it has multiple interaction methods for accessibility purposes. https://developer.apple.com/wwdc23/10034 https://developer.apple.com/wwdc23/10034 > The Dwell Control accessibility feature allows people to select and interact with the UI without using their hands. There’s also Pointer Control in that talk which provides alternatives to eye control. Note: I obviously haven’t tried this since it’s just Apple’s own videos on it, nor am I someone who would need to. So I can’t speak to the efficacy of those input models. but just relaying the information.
