Actually this highlights a problem with accessibility technology I've long
since been concerned with (or perhaps more appropriately is that its an
issue with the use of mainstream devices being used as accessibility
devices).
I have pretty well defined accessibility needs. I need a phone with a large
screen (so I can read it) and a good quality camera so I can use it as a
video magnifier. I don't need braille but this is available on both Android
and iOs devices these days (as are most other accessibility features).
But this tends to narrow the selection down to a very limited number of
phones which are usually in a higher price range than most average people
need to consider.
Something that needs to be suggested to the NDIS planners as this is an
expense that is often considered a "unrequired" or "extravagant" when for
us it really is a necessity. Currently am using a Huawei P20 Lite which was
a compromise between features and cost....
