Reminder to enable Larger Accessibility Sizes, so you can pick from one of the five extra accessibility sizes when configuring text sizes. You can do it from Settings, Accessibility, Display & Text Size, and Larger Text.

Sometimes, with large font sizes, there's no other way around it but to offer an alternative layout. Small tweaks are often enough. Otherwise, the text will be barely readable. Larger text shouldn't mean less content or a worse experience. One thing you can do is to check if the preferred content size category of a view is an accessibility category. And, in that case, move things around to make room for the text, offer more lines of text, etc. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/uikit/uicontentsizecategory/isaccessibilitycategory
@NSSpain has a great history of having amazing accessibility talks in their schedule! “Accessibility in the Real World”, by @Sommer: https://vimeo.com/235317172 “How to build an app for everyone”, by @NovallSwift: https://vimeo.com/362163043 The super fun "Choose your own SwiftUI adventure - 3 Accessibility", by @twostraws and @PinkerStraws: https://vimeo.com/481768105 And, of course, this year's great "Bas: My Accessibility Story", by @basthomas: https://vimeo.com/751176747
Today I want to share something I use a lot. You can convert any article into a “podcast” by enabling Speak Screen in Accessibility Settings, switching to Safari’s Reader Mode and swiping down with two fingers from the top of the screen. I think it is a good example of how if we all knew more about how to use the assistive tech available in iOS, we would find ourselves using more of them, more often, exemplifying quite well that accessibility benefits everyone.
