Make sure you support Dynamic Type up to the largest text size available. Take into account that there are five extra accessibility sizes available from the Accessibility Settings. It can make a huge difference for lots of users.

Support accessibility Dynamic Type sizes
24 Dec 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.

What is the ideal distance between labels? It depends on styles for both of them and the dynamic type size, right? You wouldn't want to have the same distance for small and large text sizes. We can configure a standard distance between baselines.
One of my favourite Dynamic Type tricks is to use Stack Views and flip the axis from horizontal to vertical given a certain content-size-category threshold. So effortless and it works so well in so many scenarios.
If you are displaying something in two or more columns, you may want to change that to as little as one column when using some of the largest Dynamic Type settings to keep the text readable.
