What it does

This toolbar is a Chrome plugin that simulates using the web with a range of disabilities, including:

  • Dyslexia
  • Colour blindness
  • Myopia
  • Blindness & more

We’ve designed the tool for people looking to develop and test accessible websites.

Screen reader simulator

Screen readers can be overwhelming. We made a screen reader simulator that is as easy to use as possible.

  • Experience the web as if you were blind or partially-sighted
  • Optionally have text read aloud to you
  • Navigate with your keyboard or mouse
  • Optionally turn off your ability to see the page
  • Experience screen reader features like skipping to headings, landmarks, form elements, and more
