Colour overlays are traditionally translucent pieces of plastic which can be placed over documents to make them more accessible. Colour overlays have been proven to improve reading speed and comfort and are especially beneficial for individuals with dyslexia. In the Present Pal App, there are 10 colour overlays which can be selected to suit the user’s individual reading preferences. Once selected, the colour overlay will remain consistent throughout the entire Present Pal App.
