Hiru-friendly apps
Hiru provides native integration of eye tracking in Windows and iPadOS. Hiru has been certified to meet Apple’s performance standards via the MFi Program and works plug-and-play with Windows. Being multi-platform, Hiru enables the full use of more apps for people with disabilities via eye gaze than other eye-trackers.
Control the following Hiru-friendly apps using your eyes.
Some are integrated or optimized for Hiru, meaning they’ve been designed for use with Hiru. Some have been designed to be accessible, thus, can be easily used with the eyes. All other apps are Hiru-friendly so you can use them with the AT menu in iPadOS or with EasyClick in Windows.
The Hiru-friendly apps listed here are based on functions: AAC, Learning, Entertainment and Smart Home.
