Classic Invert reverses the colors of the display. But there's also Smart Invert. To support it, for avoiding images and media from being inverted, you just have to set accessibilityIgnoresInvertColors to true, for these elements. A quick win!

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.

Custom actions work well with VoiceOver and Switch Control. It is also a way of speeding up navigation, and grouping all actions available for an item in a single place, with Full Keyboard Access. Focus an item and use the shortcut Tab (⇥) + Z.

VoiceOver announces "Tab bar" or "Toolbar", the first time you select an element in one of these components. If you are implementing your custom versions of these, you can mirror this behaviour, as seen in previous tweets. https://x.com/dadederk/status/1558045414082871298?s=20&t=LA95j22apvWsUqShqWGBzA

When using VoiceOver on a device without a home button it can first be confusing how you can do a few things, including going to Home from an app, or opening the App Switcher, Control Center, or Notifications. Here's a quick guide for you.
