Listeners share updates on iOS reliability, AirPods Pro 3 noise cancellation, Samsung versus Apple Watch accessibility, and the jaw-dropping Monarch multi-line braille display. Steven and Shaun dig into the realities of braille adoption, assistive tech prices, and the importance of teaching braille to the next generation. Expect laughs, honest opinions, and thoughtful commentary on what truly makes assistive technology useful and accessible.
