Apple's World Wide Developer Conference (
WWDC) starts Monday June 10th. At the event
Apple will detail "the future of
iOS and OS X." Apple is a leader in integrated
accessibility with their
VoiceOver screen reader and numerous other accessibility features such as
Guided Access,
Speak Selection,
Zoom, and
Assistive Touch. That being said Apple still needs to improve their accessibility features to remain a leader. New accessibility features have routinely been added to new versions of iOS. Last year, Apple added Guided Access along with other accessibility improvements. A new version of iOS is exciting not only because of the cool mainstream features but the lesser known, but no less important accessibility features that make the devices usable for so many. Make sure to visit
The Assistive Technology Blog after the Keynote for all the iOS 7 and OS X accessibility news.
In the meantime check out my iOS 7 Wish List video below.
