Our Vision

iHabilitation Canada envisions a world where inclusive design levels the visual playing field for Apple touch-screen users, regardless of their ability to see or read.

Our Mission

Our mission is to provide inclusively designed tactile/audio/visual products and services that facilitate touch-screen learning and teaching for people with vision or reading disabilities, their supporters and colleagues, and to demonstrate how this inclusive vision improves access to information, service providers and social networks that are working to improve quality of life world-wide.

Our newest book, “Feel’n’See Screenshots for iOS9”, is now available here! These screenshots combine tactile diagrams and large text to describe the layout of iPhone and iPad screens, native apps, and the location of device controls. The book is available in three versions: large text only (minimum 20 point), braille only, and dual-mode braille and large text.

In addition to our Feel’n’See screenshots for iDevices, we offer resources for supporters of low- and no-vision users – Teachers of the Vision-Impaired, family, friends, and colleagues. Each screenshot has a companion teaching video to facilitate orientation and to demonstrate how the Voiceover screen-reader’s gestures are used to navigate and manipulate the interface.

iHabilitation Brochures
iHabilitation Canada is pleased to now provide sample brochures. They contain six large print/tactile diagrams, along with instructions for their use to help increase understanding of iDevice screen layouts.

iHabilitation Canada at the World Trade Center
iHabilitation is honoured to have been chosen to provide the braille and tactile floor-plan diagrams for the One World Observatory at the World Trade Center in New York City. The observatory was officially opened May 29, 2015, by Mayor Bill deBlasio.
