From AppleVis: Vox libri is available for iOS

Hi everyone,

I’m happy to share that my new iPhone reading app, Vox Libri, has just been released on the App Store. It’s built specifically to offer a comfortable,
distraction-free, and fully accessible reading experience—especially for blind and low-vision readers, braille users, and anyone who benefits from a highly
customizable interface.

What Vox Libri does
• Read your way: on-screen reading, braille display support, or high-quality text-to-speech.
• A reading screen you can truly tailor: font, size, spacing, colors, and themes.
• Smart navigation through chapters, headings, pages, bookmarks, and document sections.
• Hands-free reading with headphone controls.
• Import and read common formats: TXT, PDF, DOCX, RTF, HTML, Markdown, and EPUB.
• On-device AI features (when supported by your device): translation, summarization, and simplification.
• Full English and Spanish support across the interface and reading experience.

If you’re interested, you can check it out here:

If you try it, I’d really value feedback from this community—especially around VoiceOver/braille workflow, navigation, and anything that could be improved
for real-world reading.

Thank you.

I'm proud to release the first early version of the high-level audio engine I've been working on for the past months!
GraphAudio.Kit is a high level 3d audio game engine for your dotnet, using SteamAudio for great hrtf! Very understandable and hackable. It's built on top of GraphAudio, which is a set of libraries I made that let you create your own audio engines by giving you a graph-based audio framework, webaudio for your dotnet basically! Please take a look, and tell your friends.

Duck Duck Go has added a tremendously useful feature to their search -- a permanent block. Any site can be added to a block list to never show up in any of your search results again.

I will be using this on any site that is obviously spitting out AI generated "articles."

Can someone who uses voiceover on iOS 26 please confirm this? Or am I going mad?

Opened the kindle app, did a thing, continued with ma day. Cycled back to it later in app switcher, voiceover fully announces the app as “shit”. If you swipe up, it says close kindle. I’ve yet to check but I’m pretty certain this isn’t a drunken / stupendously high dictionary entry, as it reads kindle normally everywhere else.
