[Electronics-Talk] Appliances Control With IPhone

Hello:

I do wish that the department stores had a way to have appliances plugged in 
so we could test them to see if we can use them or not.  It is very 
frustrating to get it home unpacked and then to find out it cannot be used 
by a blind person.

I must say that I know plenty of blind people who use all the functions of 
the Insta pot without sighted assistance.

Of course, if you don't feel comfortable using it without sighted 
assistance, by all means don't. But I would not take the company at their 
word on what is blind friendly.
