If you use #Apple devices and are sensitive to flashing lights, you may want to install the new #iOS 16.4 update as there’s a new accessibility feature that allows your #iPhone to automatically dim the sceeen when #flashinglights and #strobe effects appear. Just make sure you turn it on after installing the update. Some other useful features this brings include new #emoji, #voiceover in the #weather app, #notifications for web #apps, improved #duplicate photo detection as well as improved #crashdetection.

I keep seeing posts reminding people to make photos accessible by adding descriptions, but I haven’t seen any posts with resources of how to make better descriptions. We tend to describe images from our able body perspective and I would like to know what people with vision impairment value in descriptions. A quick search lead me to this https://www.perkins.org/resource/how-write-alt-text-and-image-descriptions-visually-impaired/ Any other resources? #accesibiity

For that matter, what’s the best way to handle formatting like italics and bold for web screen-readers? Are <strong> for bold and <em> for italics the best tags to use? #accesibiity
