If you’re blind or have low vision, you can use VoiceOver Recognition on iPad to scan your surroundings and get live descriptions of the scenes detected in the camera view. You can also get descriptions of onscreen images and user interface elements, even in apps and on webpages that don’t provide accessibility information.
Important: VoiceOver Recognition should not be relied upon in circumstances where you could be harmed or injured, in high-risk situations, for navigation, or for the diagnosis or treatment of any medical condition.
With VoiceOver on, triple-tap the screen with four fingers to start Live Recognition.
Choose the kinds of visual information you want VoiceOver to describe, like scenes, people, doors, furniture, or text. At the bottom of the screen, select a category, then double-tap to turn it on or off. If you turn on Point & Speak, you can point your finger at text and have VoiceOver read it aloud.
Note: Detection of people, doors, and furniture is available only on , then tap Detect. Tap Get live descriptions of visual information around you with Magnifier on iPadAccessibility features for vision on iPad
