watchOS and Apple Watch Apps

Hello!
We are a research team from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. We have developed a mobile app for interactive physical activity management to help blind individuals manage their physical activities more easily using an Apple Watch. We are seeking accessibility experts who can use our app for three days and provide feedback and suggestions. Participants will be required to join one Zoom meeting to assist with app installation and another after three days for an expert evaluation, each lasting one hour. The eligibility criteria for participating in this study are as follows:
1. Adults over the age of 18
2. Blind persons who use Siri and VoiceOver
3. Own an iPhone and Apple Watch, and use them to manage their physical activities
4. Reside in the USA and be able to participate in Zoom meetings for research ethics supervision
We plan to recruit three participants. Upon completion of the study, participants will receive a $100 Amazon coupon as a token of our appreciation. If you are interested and eligible for this study, please email us at a11yhealthlab@illinois.edu, and we will respond promptly.

Thank you.
