Accessibility Shortcut on iOS

Related: iOS App Development


When you add features to Accessibility Shortcut, you can just triple-click a physical button and tap to quickly open the feature you want.

  • Shortcut can be added via Settings -> Accessibility -> Accessibility Shortcut

When Assistive Access on iOS is on, the Accessibility Shortcut can’t be opened. To open it while Guided Access is on, you must first turn on Accessibility Shortcut when you set up Guided Access.

You can also add Accessibility Shortcut to Control Center, then reach your shortcuts with an onscreen swipe instead of triple-clicking a physical button. (Magnifier, Text Size, Guided Access, and Hearing can be added directly to Control Center.)

On iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max, you can assign the Action button to open accessibility features.
