Make Your iPhone Read for You
Another really useful accessibility feature anyone can take advantage of is called Spoken Content. As you can probably guess, when you use this feature, the content on your screen will be read out loud by your iPhone.
Granted, the voice isn’t pretty, but it could be a useful tool if you need to read a PDF file while you’re on the bus or working out. Plus, you can choose from other voices, including voices from different regions and accents.
Here’s how to enable Spoken Content:
- Open the Settings app.
- Scroll down and tap on Accessibility.
- Tap on Spoken Content.
- Enable Speak Screen.
Now, to use Spoken Content, swipe down from the top of your screen with two fingers. A small playback menu will pop up, and the voice will start reading the content on the screen.
You can repeat the steps above to change the voices and the speaking rate and select the default language.
