Preguntas de entrevista sobre accesibilidad iOS en 2026: VoiceOver y Dynamic Type

// Check if VoiceOver is running
if UIAccessibility.isVoiceOverRunning {
    // Adapt the interface for VoiceOver
    showSimplifiedInterface()
}

// Check if Reduce Motion is enabled
if UIAccessibility.isReduceMotionEnabled {

    animationDuration = 0
}

// Check if Bold Text is enabled
if UIAccessibility.isBoldTextEnabled {
    // Use heavier fonts

// In UIKit: configure an accessible element
