When you are designing an app, its important to think about all of the people who will use it, including those with disabilities such as visual, mobility, hearing, and cognitive impairments. In the United States alone, 36 million people have a disability and worldwide that figure is estimated around 1 billion. By ensuring that your app is accessible to people with disabilities, you can reach a significantly larger customer base and ensure that no one is excluded from
being able to use your app. For additional details on designing your app with accessibility in mind, please see: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/hh700407.aspx Design for Accessibility (Windows Store apps) See related videos here: http://channel9.msdn.com/Series/Introducing-Windows-8/Narrator Designing with Narrator in mind <img src="http://m.webtrends.com/dcs1wotjh10000w0irc493s0e_6x1g/njs.gif?dcssip=channel9.msdn.com&dcsuri=http://channel9.msdn.com/Feeds/RSS&WT.dl=0&WT.entryid=Entry:RSSView:8dca399f229d4977b67ba0f201704db7
