Hello everyone,
Pranox, a startup focused on accessible smartphone experiences, is running a short survey to better understand which smartphone tasks are most difficult or frustrating for blind and low-vision users. This research will help shape AppGenie, an app being built to reduce friction in completing smartphone tasks.
AppGenie is designed to let people focus on what they want to do rather than how each app works. A user can say something natural like "Help me with grocery shopping at Costco" or "Get directions to the Space Needle" AppGenie interprets the intent, asks clarifying questions when needed, and carries out the task within supported apps.
The survey takes about 7–10 minutes. Participants are entered into a $50 gift card raffle, and some respondents may be invited to a 30-minute follow-up interview with $30 gift card compensation.

Thank you very much to anyone willing to share their experience,
Kevin

Just make apps accessible
Honestly I think implementing proper accessibility across the board is much better than an agentic solution that may or may not work, but those are just my $0.02
