: Re: Accessible voice controlled e-reader? I am looking for an e-reader or Ipad app for someone with mobility issues. A voice activated system would be ideal. For example, a verbal "Turn page" command

While not a voice activated system, we ended using the Switch accessibility controls in the Ipad. This allowed us to connect a bluetooth keyboard to the Ipad and program gestures which are be activated by the keyboard. For example, we set the spacebar to a "swipe right" gesture which works perfectly for reading within the ebooks app.

Alternatively, the switch controls can use the camera and take head gestures as inputs. This feature is also compatible with other third party accessories (ie joysticks, a range of buttons etc..) through the headphone jack or bluetooth.

(This worked well for us because as are not US citizens and can't access the NLS services)
