Later this year, Apple says, there is big things in store for accessibility. The company has pre-announced a large number of new tools and features that are coming to a number of its devices. One of the more intriguing is a new Magnifier app for macOS.
On the face of things, this is simply a macOS port of the existing iPhone and iPad app, but there is more to it than that. The app can work in conjunction with an iPhone to function as a loupe or magnifying glass. And this is just one of many accessibility options that are scheduled to roll out; there is also Apple’s Accessibility Nutrition Labels for the App Store.
