Test manually. Familiarise yourself with different assistive technologies. I find it useful to start with VoiceOver but check out Voice Control, Full Keyboard Access, and others... Remove friction, configuring shortcuts can help. Merry Christmas!

Do you know when a UI element is greyed out to show that it is disabled? Yes, there is an accessibility trait for that too: .notEnabled. VoiceOver will say “dimmed” after its accessibility label and Voice Control and Switch Control will skip it.
Grouping elements when it makes sense can make a huge impact on easing navigation with some assistive technologies like VoiceOver, Switch Control, or Full Keyboard Access. It also helps on reducing redundancy.
The .summaryElement accessibility trait causes VoiceOver to announce that element when the app starts. The element won't get the focus though, and the order is not affected. A candidate for this trait could be the rings info in the Activity app.
