For more than 20 years, Apple has provided new and innovative solutions for people with disabilities. In April of 2005, Apple created VoiceOver, a full-featured screen reading technology for the visually impaired which provides full keyboard control of the computer along with spoken audio descriptions. Since then, VoiceOver has become the most widely available and affordable screen reader on the market.
