AI BriefingApple Unveils New Accessibility Features
Key point
Apple leverages Apple Intelligence to introduce new accessibility features for people with visual and physical disabilities.
Details
Through Apple Intelligence, powerful new capabilities are being added to existing accessibility features such as VoiceOver, Magnifier, Voice Control, and Accessibility Reader.
VoiceOver and Magnifier use Apple Intelligence to provide detailed descriptions of images such as photos, scanned receipts, and personal documents. Users can ask what's in the camera view via the Action button, and ask follow-up questions in natural language to get more detailed visual information.
Voice Control introduces natural language processing capabilities that let users control their iPhone and iPad with intuitive commands like "tap the purple folder," without needing to memorize exact button names or numbers.
In addition, the update supports on-device caption generation for videos without captions, and provides a feature that lets Apple Vision Pro users control compatible wheelchairs using eye movement.
