Images can automatically scale for accessibility content size categories, by setting the adjustsImageSizeForAccessibilityContentSizeCategory property to true, for any UIImageView you'd like to get its size adjusted.
Day 124
Let UIImageView scale for accessibility sizes
19 Sep 2022
Some of you have asked me how you can support what I do. This would really help, and would be hugely appreciated:
Find these posts useful? Share them at work, on social media, or with anyone that might find them interesting. Let's spread the word!
Check out any of my apps or games: Xarra!, RetroRapid!, or Mestre!.
A download and a review go a long way. They're free by default. On the App Store, ratings and reviews really help more people discover them.
Finding any of them useful? If so, and if you can afford it, purchasing lifetime access to all features or subscribing lets me buy the coffee that keeps me caffeinated. Caffeine keeps me going to maintain the apps, bring in new features that I hope you'll love, and keep writing.

Potential benefits from grouping logical pieces of information and moving buttons to custom actions: reduce redundancy (by removing repetitive controls) and reduce cognitive load (by making easier to know what item will be affected by each action)
"We have one job, and that's to make our apps work. And if you are not implementing accessibility features, you are forgetting about making it work for a lot of people" @NovallSwift Couldn't have said it better! https://x.com/novallswift/status/1328387659744505856
Day 100
Who invented VoiceOver?
We've spoken a lot about VoiceOver in the past 100 days. But who invented VoiceOver? The answer to this question and other fascinating stories from Mike Shebanek are in these amazing episodes of *13 Letters*: - Who invented VoiceOver? - Accessibility should be free > "Apple had been a worldwide leader in this. Late 70s, early 80s. The company was starting to fade, and so accessibility disappeared. Probably for about 10 years. 2004, and my manager says: hey, what are we doing? Nothing. We have nothing." > "Alan Brightman going to John Scully, the CEO, and Steve Jobs before Steve was ousted from the company, saying, 'If you're going to build a computer for the rest of us, then you should build a computer for all of us.'" > "Not just deliver a screen reader but change the whole idea. And that's when I thought, we need to build this in. We need to make this free. It needs to be everywhere. It needs to be there before you know you need it."
