#Morphic started with a simple mission: make computers easier to use. We are designing technologies that assist all ages and abilities in using computers.

We're excited to participate in the upcoming Ohio Assistive Technology Conference and Vendor Fair on 9/29/21. Hope to see you there... #MyMorphic #AssistiveTech #Free https://t.co/90ByobtI2H

A6 How do we prepare young people who struggle with computers to be ready for the workforce? Tools like MyMorphic are an excellent place to start. Plus education, education, *patience* and more education. #AXSChat #SDGs #MyMorphic #RuhGlobal @RuhGlobal @AXSChat

Thanks for inviting us to #AXSChat @AXSChat @debraruh @neilmilliken @akwyz! What a brilliant conversation. :)

Q6 We use the term digital natives for younger generations but barriers remain for many young persons with disabilities and other disenfranchised youth. How can we better prepare young people who struggle with computers to be ready for the workforce? #AXSChat #SDGs #MyMorphic

[Morphic @MyMorphic]

A6 Computer interfaces can be very different from mobile devices. Folks who are efficient on mobile can be lost when they first encounter computers. Morphic's Plus subscription creates a customized MorphicBar that quickly launches apps, webpages, and #a11y features. #AXSChat

@Unuhinuii Morphic works on macOS and Windows10 computers. Not yet available for tablet or mobile devices due to security system limitations. (https://t.co/ivVtWjgsGq)

@DrJDrooghaag Maybe we could partner on this project! Let's connect.

A5 Morphic can help provide a much simpler interface that gives refugees access to key things they need - and provide a stepping stone to learning how to use computers. #AXSChat #MyMorphic 2/2

[Morphic @MyMorphic]

A5 Many refugees come from countries that primarily use mobile devices. When refugees need to use computers, they find them completely different. Others have no personal device and need to use public computers. #AXSChat 1/2

[AXSChat @AXSChat]

Q5 Refugees with and without disabilities need access to technology to help them stabilize and rebuild their lives. However, many cannot use computers due to language, disability, or lack of familiarity. What solutions can we offer these refugees? #AXSChat #SDGs #MyMorphic

[Morphic @MyMorphic]

That's one reason why Morphic is working with organizations like American Job Centers and AT Centers to help reduce these barriers to access. #AXSChat

[twenty first century digital craftsmanship @cldbrand]

@MyMorphic Another is the web access complex that assumes people have the ability/desire to acquire (often with cost), install and learn assistive tech. Those who do not are left marginalized and discriminated against by the very standards that are meant to include them.

“Working with Morphic, it made dealing with computers accessible for me again.” “The big thing is that it took the intimidation away. It changed my life dramatically.”

A4 For people who use AT but don’t own their own computer: setting up their preferences every single time they use a shared computer can be difficult and time consuming - that is a digital divide. #DigitalDivide #AXSChat #DigitalInclusion

[Morphic @MyMorphic]

A4 For people who have disabilities that impact their memory, executive function, or mental health (among others): when technology is constantly evolving and becoming more complex - simple and stable interfaces are hard to find. That is a #DigitalDivide. #AXSChat

[Morphic @MyMorphic]

A4 For people who can only use the designated "special" computer upstairs or in a resource room: when their group of friends or the class they need to take is located in the main floor lab - that is a digital divide. #AXSChat #DigitalDivide

[Morphic @MyMorphic]

Yes - Gregg and his team/collaborators' work in the field of ICT and accessibility helped make those builtin features possible! #HumbleBrag #AXSChat

[Neil Milliken @NeilMilliken]

A3 The major operating systems have many inbuilt features that are free. As a starting point they could be mapped, portable and interoperable as per @GreggVan ‘s GPII Vision. #axschat

[Morphic @MyMorphic]

Exactly! Talking about Morphic: “It’s easy to turn things on and off in the moment. You don’t need to dig into the computer to find things.”

[Billion Strong @BillionStrong1]

A1 Not everybody is tech savvy. Having a tool that can help highlight accessibility features is especially useful for non-tech users and some people who have disabilities, particularly if they don't have a devoted PC. #AXSChat #RuhGlobal @RuhGlobal @AXSChat #MyMorphic

[Morphic @MyMorphic]

A3 We know not all #AT companies allow users to use a single license on different computers, but they increasingly do - and Morphic is working to increase the number. #AXSChat #DigitalEquity #TechForGood #MyMorphic

[Morphic @MyMorphic]

A3 A key feature of Morphic is, whenever possible, to allow users’ licenses to follow them to any computer they use with Morphic installed on it. Morphic is free, so we hope it will be a practical solution to install everywhere. Then, people can use their AT licenses. #AXSChat

[AXSChat @AXSChat]

Q3 When people who need AT don't have easy access to their preferred software/settings it prevents them from participating in society. How can we assure everyone has access to the Assistive Technology they need when they do not have multiple licenses? #AXSChat #SDGs #MyMorphic

[Morphic @MyMorphic]

Imagine all the possibilities once that barrier is removed. Morphic is free to install, so your settings can easily transfer from one computer to another. #AXSChat #a11y

[Neil Milliken @NeilMilliken]

A2 Allowing users to chose their own configuration is not just a case of preference it may be the difference between being able to use technology or not. Allowing customization is a key part of #accessibility. Having your settings follow you is even better. #axschat
