According to a report that became known this Sunday thanks to the Japanese website of Mac Otakara, it states that Apple plans market through their stores, both the online store like physical stores, different products adapted to people with disabilities, keeping in mind that they will be available for sale sometime in 2016.
Specifically, the web indicates as the beginning of the sale of these products the period covered between January and March 2016.
It is not yet clear what products or product categories Apple plans to put on sale, although if we stick to the line of products that it currently has for sale there may be a wide range of hardware, from the typical "made for iPhone" to accessories for reading braille displays.
Apple has for years provided various accessibility options for users and that today we can find under a specific accessibility option across all existing Apple platforms, including Mac, iOS, watchOS, and the newer TVOS. For example, iOS already comes with integrated tools with different settings in the access user interface such as VoiceOver and a guidance system in the interface itself.
On the other hand, the company also attaches great importance to this aspect, that is, puts a lot of emphasis in which it is known that they have accessibility software available as one of its most important parts. When FaceTime debuted in 2010, television advertisements and online media touted this technology as an option for those who had to communicate through sign language.
Most recently, Apple's American Foundation for the Blind gave an Award to Helen Keller for her work on VoiceOver technology. The company later launched a call center on both its own and third-party applications that offer VoiceOver in a special section of the App Store.
