-
My wife’s eyesight has been failing quite fast and, of course, it has been very hard for her. She used to be quite an avid web surfer, but now she is unable to read the text on her tablet, even when we increase the magnification. Is there an application that can be put on her tablet that can read documents and articles out loud to her?
