Track This Blog By E-mail. Editor's Note: This blog post has been updated to include additional information about reading apps. Tablet computers , like the iPad, Kindle Fire, and Samsung Galaxy, have dramatically changed how we read. For individuals experiencing any type of vision loss, these devices have also increased the overall ease of access to print. The digital formatting of print into electronic text allows for enlarging text by changing font size or through screen magnification and using screen reading software like Apple's VoiceOver or Android's TalkBack to read text out loud with a synthesized voice. In addition, since these devices connect quickly to the Internet, they may also function as audio receivers, streaming newspaper reading services and audio recordings of books, magazines, and podcasts in a way that now provides unprecedented access to a vast array of content to readers of all abilities. There are many great apps to use for reading on a tablet, and a comprehensive list would be much larger than the five apps outlined here.
