Description

Social media platforms are reactive, in that they only provide access to those with low vision after their success with the sighted user market and they are mainly visual. Byte is a social platform for all, built in consideration of users with low vision. By recording an audio byte, users can share their lives on a feed, along with posts from friends and family.
