Enhance the accessibility of your reading app

A Podkey summary of Enhance the accessibility of your reading app, from WWDC 2026.This one is all about a very specific corner of app design that ends up making a huge difference in real use: how text behaves with VoiceOver, Speak Screen, and Apple's reading tools. The big theme is pretty simple. If an app treats text like real, navigable text instead of a pile of separate visual elements, people get smoother reading, better selection, and way less friction moving through long content. And a lot of the best advice here boils down to one very healthy instinct in software: use the system stuff when you can, and get custom only when you truly need to.Linking paragraphs so VoiceOver keeps movingGetting paged reading to feel like actual readingPutting useful actions inside the edit rotorWhen custom text has to behave like real textWhy the tokenizer matters more than it soundsAccessibility Reader ties it togetherThe simplest advice is still the best adviceThis podcast was created with Podkey.
