Mark From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Richard Turner Sent: Tuesday, June 22, 2021 6:14 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Article from 9 to 5 Mac concerning 300 changes coming to iOS 15, this is a publicly distributed article I’m going to copy the accessibility tidbit here, but the link to the full article is below. Note that on the full article, there are links to specific sections of their video. Accessibility As always, the newest version of iOS features a sizable helping of accessibility improvements, but I was particularly impressed with this year’s array of enhancements. For the first time on iPhone, it’s now possible to set per-app accessibility settings. For example, if Smart Invert makes it easier to use a specific app, but you don’t want to invert the entirety of iOS, you can permanently enable Smart Invert on a single app of your choice. There’s also a new background sounds option in Accessibility that will play soothing dark noise, ocean, stream, or rain sounds to help mask unwanted environmental noise. Users can even choose to mix background sounds with other audio or system sounds. • • New sound actions for Switch Control lets users with physical impairments control iPhone with only their voice, instead of needing to use dedicated buttons, switches, or overly complex voice commands. A new sound panel in Switch Control preferences lets users control iPhone with click, cluck, pop, “ee” sounds and more. • Comment from me, It will be interesting if switches will be usable with VoiceOver in iOS 15. Visually impaired people who also have severe motor impairments or speech impairments have been out of luck before. iOS 15 beta hands-on: 300+ changes and features [Video] - 9to5Mac Richard Software means never having to say you're finished Web site: www.turner42.com -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
