Season 1, Episode 709, Mar 18, 2021, 10:30 AM
In Your Pocket is a voice driven smart device which as the product name says fits neatly into your pocket and can perform many tasks while you are out and about.
Connect Radio's Toby Davey caught up with Liam O'Carroll who is registered blind and a great fan of In Your Pocket to share the benefits for him of the device as a visually impaired person.
Liam explained to Toby why he decided to choose In Your Pocket as his smart device of choice, how easy it is for Liam as an avid reader to listen to RNIB Talking Books and other audio books on the device, how he used the navigation features on In Your Pocket such as the 'Where Am I?' feature to help him get to an appointment and find his destination along one of London's long and winding streets. Liam also shared with Toby how easy it was for him as a blind person to set up In Your Pocket with out any sighted assistance which can't be said for many smart devices.
