Verizon Launches Accessibility Features
Verizon Communications recently launched a resource page for its newly
upgraded FiOS accessible video subscription service. The page provides
information on FiOS text-to-speech functionality, which was pushed out
to subscribers during a recent software update throughout the Verizon
network.
The upgraded accessibility features are part of the changes made through
the 21st Century Communications & Video Accessibility Act (CVAA), which
requires
cable providers to make their navigation systems accessible for
customers who are blind and visually impaired. These features are
currently available on most FiOS systems. To learn more about the
accessibility upgrades, including steps on how to activate such
features, visit,
