NoteStream(TM) App Debuts VoiceOver Accessibility Feature

ORANGE COUNTY, Calif. – October 23, 2015 – NoteStream™, the innovative mobile learning app designed to enable users to find, enjoy and follow long-form articles and content easily on their mobile devices, has announced it is now compatible with Apple’s VoiceOver accessibility feature. According to the American Foundation for the Blind, nearly 10 percent of all adult Americans have some form of vision loss or impairment. With the new VoiceOver feature, NoteStream users are able to use hand gestures to access the content in the app. VoiceOver also includes a Braille keyboard and Braille displays, offering additional accessibility for individuals with vision impairments.

“At NoteStream, we value our user’s feedback and are committed to responding to their questions, needs and requests,” explained Michelle Forsythe, founder and CEO of NoteStream. “We were receiving requests to make the app more accessible for those with disabilities, and seized the opportunity to develop and incorporate VoiceOver into the app. The VoiceOver feature aligns with NoteStream’s mantra to empower individuals to ‘never stop learning,’ as the app is now a learning platform and resource for individuals of all abilities.”

Part of the NoteStream business model is to provide a voice for nonprofits looking to spread awareness of their missions, research and causes to a widespread audience on mobile. The inclusion of the VoiceOver feature in the app furthers the missions of NoteStream’s nonprofit partners by allowing them to share their activities and accomplishments with a growing audience of mobile users, including those with visual impairments.
