Magnifier + Door Detection
Magnifier works like a digital magnifying glass, using the camera on your iPhone or iPad to increase the size of anything you point it at — from a prescription bottle to a candlelit menu. For those who are blind or have low vision and want more information about their physical surroundings, Detection Mode in Magnifier combines input from the camera, LiDAR Scanner and on-device machine learning to offer intelligent tools like People Detection, Door Detection, Image Descriptions and Text Detection.1
If you’re standing in line, you can use People Detection to determine a person’s proximity to you. Door Detection can help you navigate by identifying doors, text and the presence of symbols — such as a restroom symbol, a no-smoking symbol, or an accessible-entrance symbol — within a metre of you. Image Descriptions and Text Detection let you hear more about people, objects, landscapes and text in your camera’s field of view.2

Display Settings
A collection of settings supported across product platforms helps you customise your onscreen display according to your personal preferences. Make text easier to read with Bold Text or Larger Text. You can also invert colours, increase contrast, reduce transparency or apply colour filters to adapt your screen in ways that best support your vision preferences. These settings can be applied on an app-by-app basis. And in macOS, you can even customise the fill and outline colour of your pointer to make it easier to spot onscreen.

VoiceOver
Put moments into words.

VoiceOver
VoiceOver is an industry-leading screen reader that describes exactly what’s happening on your device. Navigate while receiving audible descriptions or braille output of onscreen content when using compatible braille devices with your iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, Apple TV or HomePod.3 You can explore details about the people, text, table data and other objects within images.4 VoiceOver can also describe a person’s position in relation to objects in images, so you can relive memories in greater detail. Customise settings such as pitch range for your preferred built-in voices. Siri voices work better with VoiceOver too. With the latest advancements in our speech synthesis technology, Siri speech is smooth and expressive, even at high speeds.
