For enlarging desktop icons you can choose small, medium and large by right click on desktop then click view at top
Good tip, thanks!
Great video, but you didn't mention how you might get the text-to-speech icon in Edge if it isn't already there.
If it's not there then I assume the page isn't readabe!
Enlarge desktop icon using
`ctrl` + `shift` + 1/2/3/4
Same work for file explorer too
Thank you for that!
read page out loud in edge , i did not know cause im always using a screen reader nvda and the short cut is ctrl shift + u ... and .. and .. yes ham and bean soup :) greets Mak
Thanks Mak!
What accessibility features do you have, specifically, for dyslexic students? I’ve found high contrast and fonts help. Any other thoughts?
Text to speech would seem to be an obvious one! Potentially also adjusting line and letter spacing.
Is there a way to darken the font on an iPad Pro? I am using all accessibility options, and they are good. But wherever I navigate on my iPad,the font is so faint that I am really struggling. Thanks-Linda
There is a Bold Text option under Settings>Accessibility>Display and Text Size. Otherwise you can try inverting colors with Smart Invert, found in the same place as Bold Text in the settings.
Thanks. I do have bold on, as well as text size. But everything is pale gray wherever I go. I am interested in Eyedaptics wearables. For some reason, the only reviews/testimonials I can find are from the Eyedaptics CEO. Seems fishy to me. But the glasses look great for my circumstances. Can you share any knowledge of this company that you may have? Thank you so much-. Linda
Hi Linda, I have tried the Eyedaptic 5 and it seems like a decent wearable. The image quality was decent and they were comfortable. You can use the camera of the phone that the headset is tethered too also, and that gives an excellent image. Unfortunately we don't have them here, so I can't give you any serious long-term impressions. As with any of these things, I would highly recommend trying to get a demo to see for yourself.
Well, thanks so much. I wish you did carry them; I would rather buy from you than elsewhere. Linda
Thank you for thinking of us! @@lindakaye1320
