Abstract - This research paper explores the development of ShopaSonic, an inclusive e-commerce mobile application designed to make online shopping fully accessible for visually impaired users. While online shopping offers convenience to many, most platforms rely heavily on visual navigation and text-based interactions, making them challenging for individuals with limited or no vision. To address this gap, ShopaSonic introduces a voice-driven shopping experience with a dedicated accessibility mode, enabling hands-free navigation, secure authentication, and seamless checkout. The app also incorporates gesture-based navigation enhancing usability. By prioritizing digital accessibility, this study aims to highlight how assistive technology can empower visually impaired individuals with a simpler, more inclusive shopping experience.
