[IL-Talk] Instapot no longer accessible

[Leslie Hamric]

Well, I figured proposing a resolution would be the first step. And now that you've directed me toward the self advocacy tool kit, I will go there and fill out the non-visual accessibility tracking form. Now that I think of it, I think there's been a resolution before about Apple and something with apps but I can't remember what it is. Thank Thanks for the information.
