Recite Me - Sign Language Feature 

We are proud to offer the option to add sign language support to your toolbar.

How does it work for users?How does it work for users?

 A Sign Language icon will appear on your toolbar.

When the icon is selected a side panel opens displaying a signed video explaining what support is available on your website. 

The panel also lists page links allowing a user to navigate to pages which have support.       

This feature effectively acts as a library of sign language content, allowing users to easily see and access all the sign language support available on your website.
