The Verge spokesperson said that “We’re always looking for ways to improve our accessibility.” The microblogging platform has been under fire in the past owing to the lack of accessibility. In summer, after launching voice tweets in an effort to get more attention, Twitter introduced an auto caption to the audio experience.

After initial criticism that function failed to understand the needs of visually impaired, deaf, or hard-to-doing, Twitter apologized and “fixed several issues,” including making voice tweets accessible on the timeline. So it’s a little too late that the company didn’t learn out of its mistakes and released Auto-captions with more functionalityspecifically an option to edit or report incorrect subtitles. Twitter didn’t respond immediately to a comment.
