There is a Color Contrast Calculator conveniently built into the Accessibility Inspector. Find it in Window, in the top menu. Select two colors for text and background and check if it passes for all text sizes or just some of the largest ones.

The Accessibility Inspector can be used with your device. It is actually quite interesting to check what other apps (or iOS) configure, for some of the basic accessibility attributes (label, value, traits, hint...), in their UI components.

Toggles or UISwitches are often found separated from the label that precedes (and describes) them; with an unclear label; missing a value, trait, or hint; or even not being actionable at all.
UINotificationFeedbackGenerator has a “success” feedback type. Consider using it when a task was performed successfully together with any other visuals or sound. The use of multiple modes just makes it easier for everyone to understand your app.
