Even with our great advances in technology, people with dyslexia still face challenges when it comes to the most basic use of software. Reading on an iPad an be just as overwhelming as reading out of a book, and typing isn't always any easier than writing. Luckily, there's a handy feature on the iPad that could be useful, and this video shows how it works. 

This is the text-to-speech feature, which can be especially helpful for dyslexics -- it will read the highlighted text aloud, which not only helps reading, but also checking your own writing. Hearing what's just been written can be greatly helpful to many dyslexic individuals -- if the spelling or punctuation isn't correct, it becomes clear when the text is read out loud. The video below shows how to set up this helpful feature on your own iPad.
