• Image Descriptions: Users can add detailed descriptions to their images, helping those with visual impairments understand visual content.

• Automatic Video Captions: Instagram provides automatic captions for videos, aiding those with hearing impairments by transcribing the audio.
• Screen Reader Compatibility: The mobile app works with screen readers, making it easier for people with visual impairments to navigate.
• Alt Text: Users can add alt text to their posts, aiding those with visual impairments to understand shared content.
