Why each option
A screen reader is assistive technology designed to interpret and read aloud digital text and elements on a computer screen for individuals with visual impairments.
Screen readers convert on-screen text, images, and other graphical elements into speech or braille output, allowing blind or visually impaired users to interact with computer interfaces. This technology provides an essential accessibility bridge by describing what is happening on the screen.
This describes a display configuration utility, not a screen reader.
This describes a feature for reading efficiency, not an accessibility tool for the visually impaired.
This describes an e-book reader application, not a screen reader for general UI interaction.
