Up close with iOS 5: Accessibility features

14.10.2011

Similar to OS X's White On Black feature within the Universal Access system preference, you use the White On Black option to invert the iOS device's screen colors, making it easier for someone with visual impairments to see.

Within the Accessibility section you'll find a new Speak Selection option, which you can switch on or off. When switched on, you can select on-screen text via the usual method and then tap a Speak button to hear the text spoken.
