Quick Tip: VoiceOver Mobile Testing

iPhones, iPads, and most other Apple devices include the VoiceOver screen reader. On mobile devices, basic testing can be accomplished as simply as starting the screen reader in the settings, navigating to a web page, and swiping with two fingers upward on the screen to cause the screen reader to read the entire screen. Other VoiceOver functionality is described in WebAIM’s VoiceOver on Mobile article.
