New videos continue to play on social media, showing visually impaired users Christy Wells using their iPhone with accessibility features. Christie uses various features on her iPhone, such as voice-over and Braille keyboards, to use Twitter and Safari.

Kristy Viers shared videos on Twitter @ Kristy _ Viers showing how she uses an iPhone or iPad as a visually impaired person. The first video she posted with her iPhone was widely distributed, and then she played videos showing how she used the iPad with Braille input and rotor adjustment.

The beauty of Kristy's video is that it makes users realize that technology can be experienced by people with disabilities. In Christie's Twitter replies and YouTube comments, many users ask her questions for the first time to learn about these features, and many users will benefit from these features. Many users don't even know that iPhones and iPads come with Braille keyboards. Note that Google also added Braille keyboards to Android earlier this year, along with a number of other accessibility features.

Apple takes assistive features in software very seriously. Both MacOS and iOS have a set of accessibility features that help people with visual, hearing and mobility disabilities. For visually impaired users, Apple has built-in display components such as VoiceOver, magnifying glass, and color filters to help users navigate their devices. Features such as text-to-voice control, switch control, Siri, etc. can also help users use their devices.

Sarah Herlinger, Apple's director of global accessibility policy, talks about iPhone accessibility on TechCrunch:

"The historical impact of the iPhone as a mainstream consumer product has been amply demonstrated. However, little is known about how the iPhone and our other products are changing the lives of the disabled community. "Over time, the iPhone has become the most powerful and popular assistive device in history. It breaks with previous thinking because it shows that accessibility can actually be seamlessly integrated into devices that everyone can use. "

The company recently reflected on the Disabled Persons Act for 30 years. It focuses on the stories of musicians, activists, and Apple employees, covering how they use technology, how the law helps, and what society needs to improve next. It's an illuminating read to understand how assistive features in technology can make many people's lives better.
