@mainmenu Happy to learn about braille template for Amazon oven. I am loving the oven! Peeps should keep in mind that using this smart oven has a learning curve! Trust the instructions! Works great with Alexa but accessing physical buttons in conjunction gives better access!

It was incredibly neat how Sarah and Dean sounded genuinely excited at being able to share and discuss the accessibility enhancements they've been working on. Apple might not always be perfect, but this interview makes it hard to question the commitment of its Accessibility Team.
