Every year for Accessibility Awareness Day, Apple shares with us a preview of some of the latest accessibility features coming to iPhone and iPads. This year is no different, as today Apple has officially shared a quick preview of some of the latest new accessibility features that will be coming to the iPhone and iPad later this year with iOS 18 and iPad OS 18.

The first feature I want to talk about is ey tracking. Yes, you heard that right - ey tracking! This feature will be coming to both the iPhone and iPad later this year, and it's powered by artificial intelligence (AI). With eye tracking, users will be able to navigate through elements of an application using just their eyes. They'll also be able to use dual controls to activate each element, accessing additional functions such as physical buttons, swipes, and other gestures. This is an awesome new accessibility feature that's going to make a big difference for people with disabilities.

So, how exactly will ey tracking work? According to Apple, it will allow users to control their device using just their eyes. They'll be able to look at specific elements on the screen, such as buttons or menus, and the device will respond accordingly. This is going to be a game-changer for people who have trouble using traditional interfaces, such as those with mobility or dexterity impairments.

Another great new feature announced today by Apple is music heptic. Music heptic allows your iPhone to provide you with taps and vibrations when listening to music, making it easier for people who are hard of hearing to enjoy their favorite tunes. This feature is going to be available using Apple Music, and it's going to be integrated into the lock screen and music controls on your device.

When you enable music heptic, you'll be able to feel taps and vibrations according to the music that's playing. For example, if a song has a strong beat, you'll feel a stronger vibration. This feature is going to make listening to music a lot more accessible and enjoyable for people who are hard of hearing.

In addition to ey tracking and music heptic, Apple has also announced a new vocal shortcuts feature coming to the iPhone later this year. Vocal shortcuts allow you to use your voice to execute a shortcut on your device. With this feature, you'll be able to choose an action or record a phrase on your iPhone, and then teach your iPhone to recognize your voice and execute that action.

For example, let's say you want to send a text message to a friend without having to physically type it out on the keyboard. With vocal shortcuts, you can simply speak the words of the message, and the device will transcribe them for you. This is going to be a huge time-saver for people who are always on-the-go.

Another feature that's coming to the iPhone later this year is vehicle motion cues. These cues are designed to help reduce motion sickness in passengers when they're traveling by car or other vehicle. The idea behind vehicle motion cues is simple: while you're driving, your phone will display animated dots on the screen that represent the changes in motion.

For example, if you're driving down a straight road and then suddenly turn onto a curve, the device will show an animated dot that indicates the change in direction. This can help people who are prone to motion sickness by giving them a visual cue about what's happening with the vehicle. The idea is that this visual cue will help your body get used to the changes in motion, reducing the likelihood of nausea.

Finally, Apple has also announced that carPlay will be getting some new features later this year. In addition to vocal shortcuts and music heptic, carPlay will now include voice controls, sound recognition, and color filters. The idea behind these new features is to make it easier for people to use their iPhone in the car without having to physically interact with the device.

For example, with voice controls, you'll be able to ask Siri questions or give her commands using just your voice. This can be really helpful when you're driving and don't have hands free to type out a message or make a call. Sound recognition will allow you to simply play music or podcasts while driving without having to physically interact with the device. And color filters will let you adjust the display settings on your iPhone while driving, which can help reduce glare and improve visibility.

Overall, these new accessibility features coming to iOS 18 and iPad OS 18 are going to make a big difference for people with disabilities. Whether it's ey tracking, music heptic, vocal shortcuts, vehicle motion cues, or carPlay enhancements, Apple is committed to making its devices more accessible and user-friendly for everyone.

In conclusion, these new accessibility features are just the beginning of Apple's efforts to make its devices more inclusive and user-friendly. As always, Apple is pushing the boundaries of what's possible with technology, and we can't wait to see what the future holds for iPhone and iPad users around the world.
