About

iPad usage data — which apps you use, how long, in what sequence — feeds Apple's advertising network (Apple Search Ads) and is used to personalize ads across the App Store and Apple ecosystem. Samsung Galaxy tablets participate in Samsung's advertising network using app usage and browsing data. Amazon Fire tablets are explicitly an advertising delivery mechanism — Amazon subsidizes hardware cost through advertising revenue and tracks all usage for that purpose. The tablet form factor is critical for accessibility users: larger touch targets, easier text rendering, better for AAC apps, and better for people with motor control differences. WanderTablet is degoogled Android on Pixel Tablet or compatible hardware with WanderCore configured — accessibility-optimized layout, WanderDash home dashboard integration, and the full WanderVerse app suite. No advertising network. No usage telemetry.

Hand-assembled

Built by supported employment workers — people with intellectual disabilities, autism, and physical disabilities — through WWP's fulfillment program. Every product ships with a Built By card. Competitive wage, never 14(c) subminimum.

Repair & refurb

Send it back. Prepaid label. Component-level repair, module upgrades, firmware updates. 7-year spare parts guarantee. Donate on return — refurbished hardware goes to shelter and community partners. GPL firmware: the device works even if WanderVerse shuts down.

No hardware subscription — ever

BMW charged $18/mo for heated seats already in your car. GM locked remote start. Eero charges for VPN on hardware that could run it free. We don't do that. You bought it, you own it — every feature works forever, no subscription required. WanderAssist ($9/mo optional) is a convenience layer, never a gate. Safety features are never paywalled.

Pro & Lux tiers — coming

Every WanderVerse hardware product will offer Pro and Lux finish tiers — premium materials and handcrafted finishes by WanderVerse Artisans: supported employment workers with artistic skills. Each Lux unit ships with a Finished By card. Lux revenue cross-subsidizes nonprofit pricing.
