VoiceOver is a screen reader built into Apple Inc.'s Mac OS X operating system since version 10.4. By using VoiceOver, the user can access his or her Macintosh by using speech and the keyboard. The feature is designed to increase accessibility for blind and low-vision users, and for users with dyslexia. A variant of VoiceOver is also included on the latest versions of Apple's iPod Shuffle, iPod Nano and iPod Touch, as well as the iPhone 3GS.
