Unicode Accessibility Testing

Unicode can emulate bold, italics, etc. I tested several copy/paste Unicode items from instafonts.io with Android’s built in TalkBack #accessibility program. I don’t have access to iOS; someone else can test that. I’m looking for suggestions for other Android/browser tools https://bsky.app/profile/anthonyscardina.com/post/3lw54z6x5qc2y
