Thanks a million really really appreciate all the apps

I will add one more app. I understand that your daughter has some vision but learning Voiceover is never a bad thing. There is a free app on the App Store called VO Starter. It is a great introduction to voiceover.

There is also the built in voice memo app on iOS. It can be handy at times. Also as someone else has said Voice Dream Reader is a great app.

Try $1. they have a great app directory with multiple different sections including apps specifically made for the blind, and an accessibility rating system.

They also have a blog and podcast talking about the newest important apps and app updates, and awards each year for the best ones.

​

Off the top of my head I'd say Braille Tutor, Braille Sonar Pro, MBraille, Seeing Assistant Home, Be My Eyes, Dolphin EasyReader, Bard Mobile, Voice Dream Scanner (better OCR than seeing AI), Voice Dream Reader (for better reading voices) and many other apps that you may not even expect would be accessible, like 3M cloud library, Overdrive, yellowpages, kindle, and audible.

​

I didn't include any navigation apps because those don't work that well on Ipads since they aren't as portable, and I didn't mention any magnifiers because I'm not low vision so if you want something more than the IOS built in magnifier you should probably ask someone who is.

I also didn't include any games, but their are many.

​

I hope this helps...

I use the built in magnifier on my iPad and iPhone all the time because it eliminates me needing to carry a seperate magnifier. You turn it in the Accessibility settings. There is also a ton of built in Accessibility features in iOS.

Thanks, she has some vision so needs things magnified.
She has a camera in school already but they're hoping to update that to a pixpro camera that will link with the iPad.
She uses join.me and blizz in class to connect to the interactive white board in class.
They use OneDrive/Microsoft office for doing bits too.
She uses daisy books and gets book online from the ncbi so we've downloaded dophin easy reader for that.
We've only recently heard of the seeing ai that's a great app too!
She has better vision with black ink on white screen (and grey scale rather than colour)

There’s a lot of different things. You need to determine what she needs and work from there. Does she have some vision and need magnification? Does she need to learn VoiceOver? Are most things in school electronic or not?. I rely on a iPad myself as a student, and here are some things I’ve found to be useful:

- Google Classroom, Nearpod or Quizlet. (Depending on what her teachers use)
- Google Drive, Docs, Slides, Sheets and Keep (these are good for projects in class, as well as note taking)
- Kindle for getting Ebooks, for say English class, or, BARD Mobile, Bookshare or Audible for audio versions.
- MyHomework is a great tool for remembering assignments
- MagX is probably the best magnification app
- SeeingAI is good for OCR and identifying things like currency and products.

Those are the basics. Really, this is all about what she needs and finding apps based on that
