Abstract: Over the years, various devices designed for people with special needs have been used for a while and then replaced with modern devices to make everyday life easier. The development of mobile devices is especially improved today and through them different everyday activities are facilitated, not only by people with special needs. The purpose of this paper is to present some of the modern mobile devices with an analysis of their operating systems, functionalities, applications and design. Based on the research, their usability for both sighted and visually and hearing-impaired users is described. Attention is paid to the preferences formed among users when using specialized applications developed for mobile devices. Based on a survey of specific target user groups, the paper provides summary results to support the thesis on the importance of the facilities, offered by modern mobile devices.

Keywords: Mobile devices; mobile operating systems; Android; iOS; special needs; visually impaired; hearing impaired; e-learning
