Since iOS 14, you can get a human readable localised name for a UIColor, with a very useful property called accessibilityName, that you can use in accessibility attributes like labels or values. How cool is that? https://developer.apple.com/documentation/uikit/uicolor/accessibilityname

@azzoor is the developer of the Braille Scanner It uses computer vision to locate the page and Machine Learning to match Braille to letters. You can see English letters above the braille, convert them to speech, copy and paste it... so cool!

A common example where you need to manually configure the button accessibility trait is for some table/collection view cells. These tend to be “buttons” that perform an action, like playing music, or bring the user to a different screen.
