    The Maine CITE web site that is committed to "helping Maine citizens with disabilities increase access to and acquisition of Assistive Technology (AT) when needed to participate in Education, Community Living, Employment and Information Technology/Telecommunications". It achieves this goal by providing information and links regarding items ranging from AT Laws and Policies to Accessible Web Design to Training. The target audience of the Maine CITE includes people with disabilities, their families, and the general public. The information presented in regard to apps on their Apps as Assistive Technology page is basically the name of the app and the developer. Maine CITE recommends that the reader go to the appropriate "app store" to review ratings and comments regarding the app. The Maine Cite webpage regarding apps has a "Buyer Beware" notice that indicates that "consumers need to do their homework and examine the quality of each purchase/download carefully".

  •  
    The South Carolina Assistive Technology Program (SCATP) is a federally funded program that "is concerned with getting technology into the hands of people with disabilities so that they might live, work, learn and be a more independent part of the community". This website provides a link to an "Apps that Make Life Easier" page that lists app categories and identifies various apps within each category. While each app is listed, the icon displayed, the cost given and a paragraph description provided, the app is not reviewed. The SCATP Website presents quality information in regard to assistive technology, but does not provide a review of that information.

Quality of information: The Apple Vis site is community based and relies heavily on feedback and posts from end users of Apple products and related apps. The information is not peer reviewed and resembles a blog or user forum. However, there is a hall of fame of apps that have been voted to be useful and accessible. Apple Vis is a good resource where a consumer can look up an app to read feedback and comments from other users before committing to purchasing the app.
