iOS 16.2 brings Custom Accessibility Mode to iPhone, and it's a big deal

iOS 16.2 beta 2 includes a Custom Accessibility Mode that lets users completely change the iPhone’s user interface.

The mode is codenamed “Clarity” within Apple. It’ll replace the main iOS interface with a simpler design. Users will be able to customize the experience to make better sense of the iPhone. They can set larger text and controls, plus choose a different app layout. The screenshots above indicate that you’ll be able to select between grids and lists.

The Custom Accessibility Mode will also impact the app design, not just the general iOS user interface. Moreover, users will be able to disable and enable the simpler UI by triple-clicking on the side button or the Home button. They can also protect the mode with a password so others don’t interfere with the customizations.Apple Inc. via 9to5Mac
