Accessibility Reader
Overview
Apple says Accessibility Reader lets users read or listen to text in a full-screen view and customize fonts, layouts, and background colors, and use it across apps. Apple also positions it in Magnifier for real-world text like books or menus. Lesson: readability improves when customization is systemwide, not per-app.
Why it matters
For people with dyslexia, low vision, or attention challenges, cluttered layouts and dense typography increase fatigue and avoidance. Accessibility Reader reduces burden by stripping distractions and allowing user-tuned presentation. Call to action: ship a dedicated reading mode with spacing, contrast, and read-aloud controls on core task screens.
