St. Xavier’s College, XRCVC – Viviana Extension announces an online workshop on the theme “Typing with an External Keyboard Using VoiceOver” for individuals with blindness.

Typing on touchscreen devices like iPhones or iPads can be slow and challenging for individuals with blindness. Using an external keyboard with VoiceOver makes device usage much easier and faster.
Physical keys and shortcuts help reduce errors and improve navigation. An external keyboard is a simple yet powerful tool that promotes independence and better access to digital content.

Apple’s iPhones and iPads offer a range of accessibility features, including support for external keyboards.
This session will explore effective techniques for typing using an external keyboard with VoiceOver.
