Apple unveils new iOS design for people with disabilities

Apple presented Several new features for people with disabilities coming to iOS 17 and macOS 14 later this year.

Many of these functions use machine learning in their work.

Assisted Access

Assistive Access uses design innovation to leave only the essential features of apps for people with cognitive impairments.

In this mode, the design of iOS and iPadOS is completely changed. All elements become much larger, and only the most necessary functions remain in applications.

With the Live Speech feature, users will be able to type text during FaceTime calls, which will be read by the system.

Users at risk of losing their voice can create a “copy” of their voice on iOS. To do this, you need to read the text that is displayed on the screen for 15 minutes.

The feature integrates with Live Speech so that when users write text, it will be voiced by their own voice.

Point and speak in the magnifying glass

This feature uses the camera and LiDAR to detect text on objects and speaks out all writing.

Other innovations

▪️ Mac users will be able to connect Made for iPhone hearing aids directly to their computers

▪️ macOS users will be able to adjust text size in Finder, Messages, Mail, Calendar and Notes

▪️ When VoiceOver is running, you can adjust the speed from 0.8x to 2x. [Apple]
