- dc.description.abstract In this paper we present an ebook reader for Android, which displays ebooks in a more accessible way according to user needs. Since people with dyslexia represent a substantial group with a reading disability, we designed a set of specific guidelines which are included in the tool. These layout guidelines for people with dyslexia are based on a user study with a group of twenty two users with dyslexia. The data collected from our study combines quantitative data from tests carried out using eye tracking and qualitative data from interviews, questionnaires and the think aloud technique. The ebook display includes the most readable options observed with the eye tracking and user preferences; however the settings are customizable.
