While these are primarily intended for people with visual, hearing, or mobility impairments, they can also improve usability for others. Apple\u2019s already strong offering of assistive tools is now being expanded with AI support.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">In a press release, the company announced updates for VoiceOver, Magnifier, and Voice Control, which are set to roll out for the iPhone and other devices later this year. The individual tools are gaining enhanced capabilities based on Apple Intelligence. More details about the changes in the AI suite will be revealed by the company during the WWDC keynote on June 8.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"mb-4 text-xl font-bold md:text-2xl\">Control iPhone Completely by Voice<\/h2>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The accessibility options already offer the ability to control the iPhone by voice with Voice Control. However, users currently need to name buttons precisely for it to work\u2013and these are not always clearly labeled. The new voice control, however, understands commands in natural language and can identify the correct button or desired spot on the screen based on user input.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Descriptions like \u201ctap the blue folder\u201d in Files or \u201cenlarge \u2018Solar&#8217;\u201d in a text document will suffice in the future. Additionally, users with visual impairments can use the \u201cSpeak what you see\u201d option to have what\u2019s on the screen read aloud\u2013such as in complex visual views like Apple Maps.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The latter is an extension of the VoiceOver accessibility feature, which also gains additional capabilities thanks to Apple Intelligence. The screen reader function will soon be able to accurately describe photos, documents, or invoices. Users can also ask questions about visible content and request further details\u2013for example, about the amount on an invoice and the payment deadline.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The Magnifier app, which uses the iPhone camera to recognize surroundings, is also getting an update. Apple Intelligence can provide detailed descriptions of what is visible in the camera viewfinder.
