<p>You can enable one or more accessibility features at the same time to better suit the device to your needs and preferences. Some features (such as the screen reader) require the use of a small set of specific gestures to operate them, while others (such as changing font size) only need to be enabled in the device settings.</p>

+<p>Components used in an application must have defined names, roles, and, when appropriate, descriptions. This allows the screen readers to present them to low-vision and visually-impaired users.</p>
<p>In addition, the elements the user can interact with must have clear and concise text labels. For example, a button with an <strong>X</strong> icon and no label works for most users, but for someone using a screen reader the icon is invisible. It is better to use a button labeled <strong>X</strong> or <strong>Cancel</strong> instead of substituting the text for an icon.</p>

<h3>Making UI Components Readable</h3>
-<p>Since the screen reader is a fundamental accessibility feature for visually-impaired or blind persons, making your application readable by the screen reader is a priority task. The following example shows how to make your application readable to the AT-SPI2 compliant screen reader.</p>

<p>The screen reader reads out information about the currently pointed or focused UI component. The UI component information is provided to the screen reader using the AT-SPI2 standard protocol and consists of the following information items:</p>

<h1>Accessibility</h1>
-<p>Accessibility features have become an essential part of high quality software. Their goal is to empower disabled users to use new technologies. This is especially important to blind and visually-impaired users who possibly have no access whatsoever to software unless it incorporates appropriate accessibility solutions.</p>

<ul>
<li><a href="accessibility_architecture_n.htm">Accessibility Architecture</a>
<p>The accessibility implementation for Tizen platform is based on the Elementary ATSPI, which enables applications to interact with graphical Elementary components visible on the screen. For example, a screen reader can access the text in the labels and descriptions of any application running on the screen and read it to the user.</p></li>
