Yes I hav seen this,
don't feel comfortable doing it myself no matter what I can use.
I hope some day we won't have to worry about testing.

> Update: Free At-Home COVID-19 Tests for Blind and Low-Vision People


> Thanks to the dedicated advocacy work of the organized blind movement 
> and supporters, the Biden-Harris Administration has launched a new 
> initiative to expand the availability of at-home tests that are more 
> accessible. Blind and low-vision people can order one set of two free, 
> more accessible at-home tests from USPS.com (while supplies last). 
> Order online through https://special.usps.com/testkits 
> <https://nfb.org/civicrm/mailing/url?u=26407&qid=7319179>  or by 
> calling 1-800-232-0233. Each order will include two rapid-antigen tests 
> and will ship free, while supplies last.

> Because of limited supply, we ask that you only order the more 
> accessible tests if you do not have other testing options. To use the 
> tests, you must have a compatible Bluetooth-enabled smartphone and 
> download and install a free app from the Apple App Store (for iOS) or 
> Google Play Store (for Android). The test works with the app to provide 
> audio step-by-step instructions for administering the test and audio 
> test results.

> Per the Administration of Community Living, this initiative complements 
> the Administration’s efforts 
> <https://nfb.org/civicrm/mailing/url?u=26409&qid=7319179>  to expand 
> production of more accessible tests and work with private sector 
> partners on the development of new accessible tests.


> Additional Resource


> The Disability Information and Assistance Line (DIAL) 
> <https://nfb.org/civicrm/mailing/url?u=26396&qid=7319179>  is an 
> additional resource, connecting people with disabilities to COVID-19 
> vaccination and testing in their communities. DIAL can also provide 
> testing instructions and other assistance with the at-home tests that 
> can be ordered from the government. The National Federation of the 
> Blind encourages contacting DIAL to inquire about accessible testing 
> options. DIAL support can be reached by calling 888-677-1199 or by 
> emailing dial at usaginganddisability.org 
> <https://nfb.org/civicrm/mailing/url?u=26397&qid=7319179> .


> More Information


> While we are excited for this progress, we continue to work for even 
> more accessible at-home testing options. Updates and more information 
> are available at https://nfb.org/covidtests 
> <https://nfb.org/civicrm/mailing/url?u=26398&qid=7319179>  as it 
> becomes available. If you know of information or additional resources 
> regarding at-home tests, please email CommunicationsTeam at nfb.org
