Screen Readers

Screen readers are software programs that help individuals with visual impairments access information on computers and mobile devices. They convert text displayed on the screen into synthesized speech or Braille output, allowing users to hear or feel what is written. Screen readers can navigate websites, read documents, and announce notifications, making digital content more accessible. They work with various applications and are essential tools for promoting inclusivity, enabling users to interact with technology and access information independently. Popular screen readers include JAWS, NVDA, and VoiceOver for Apple devices.
