Adding Immersive Reader Function for Canvas Mobile Apps

[ErinSchalk]

Hello, 

My organization provides Canvas content to users who are blind and visually impaired. Many of these students prefer using a mobile device (ex/ smart phone), as not everyone has access to a laptop or computer.

Students with low vision often benefit from using Canvas' Immersive Reader function, however, cannot use this easily on their mobile devices. Rather than relying on the Canvas apps to use the Immersive Reader, they have to bring up Canvas in their web browser on their phones.

Will Canvas be adding the Immersive Reader to the mobile app experience at some point?

Thank you for your time and assistance.

We have many students who do not have English as their first language, so the Immersive Reader is very helpful for these students when on a PC. However, many of them are more comfortable using their mobile devices, so having Immersive Reader available in the mobile app would be extremely useful.

That would help others also, I'd like to be able to listen while driving or cooking!
