That's pretty cool. I would definitely buy that, assuming it doesn't cost 15 squillion dollars. It would be cool to have a smartphone app that does this since there are still a plethora of apps that have garbage accessibility. But yeah, this would be great especially for those touch screens on the seat backs in airplanes and ticket kiosks

I would so buy this. I'm really happy this was posted, not another navigation app. I hear about so many of those it makes me want to scream.

I'm impressed. I thought this was going to be something where the people legitimately hadn't heard of voiceover and talkback, but it genuinely looks useful, if a bit clunky.
