Magnification and screen reading you can rely on
SuperNova 24 continues to build on Dolphin’s reputation for delivering reliable and intuitive magnification and screen reading for Windows.
This upgrade makes it easier than ever to find and use the magnification and screen reading features you need, so you can get more from your assistive technology:
SuperNova Help - Powered by AI
AI technology is now integrated into SuperNova Help, so finding answers to your Dolphin product queries has never been quicker or more intuitive! It's so easy to use: simply type in your question, and the AI Help system searches through Dolphin manuals, help articles and SuperNova training materials, to instantly provide you with easy-to-follow instructions. We recommend using English for the best experiences, though translations are available.
Enhanced Connect & View Feature
The Connect & View feature is even easier to use in SuperNova 24 - making classrooms more accessible. Better camera and whiteboard connectivity means students with vision impairments can interact with classroom resources – even printed material and whiteboard content - in real time. It ensures equal learning opportunities for students with low vision, as they can read and learn in class at the same time as their classmates.
Improved Accessibility for Google Apps
Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides are now even more accessible through SuperNova Magnification, Speech, and Screen Reading in Chrome and Microsoft Edge. Helping you collaborate with colleagues and classmates. Learn more about this feature and how to use it in the Dolphin Learning Zone.
Compatibility with Windows 11
Improvements in SuperNova magnification system mean you’ll stay up to date with the latest version of Windows 11. We always recommend you future-proof your SuperNova assistive technology with a Software Maintenance Agreement (SMA).
Clearer Announcements for Website Navigation
It’s now easier to navigate websites, lists and forms when you use SuperNova Speech or Braille. Improvements in SuperNova 24 provide clearer announcements and better ARIA tag support, so you will quickly find the information you need.

- automatic reading of responses to your questions in the Be My Eyes app

Keep your software up to date
Keeping your assistive technology up to date is now more important than ever. Software companies, including Microsoft, now deliver regular, rolling updates to applications, browsers and operating systems. These updates often include new features, bug fixes, security patches, and even changes to accessibility standards. It is vital that assistive technology providers are able to deliver updates, so we can continue to provide the accessibility you need.
You can protect yourself, or your clients, from future changes with a Software Maintenance Agreement (SMA) from Dolphin. The SMA provides all updates and upgrades to SuperNova for twelve months.
