ALT App Store listing for Xarra: Text to Speech Reader, a Productivity app for articles, blogs, PDFs and EPUBs, rated 4.5 stars from 8 ratings. A banner reads "Now Available: Major Update, Xarra 2.1: Reading Unfolds. Read on iPhone Duo. Search your library with Siri," beside a Gaady's Winner 2026 badge and a phone showing a reading list.

ALT A colourful hand-drawn sketchnote titled "Accessibility, Live on Stage" by Dani Devesa (@dadederk.bsky.social). Sections cover: "Coffee > Swift" with notes on RocketSim's accessibility overlay and the three-finger triple-tap screen curtain gesture; live coding to fix accessibility issues; tips to use native components instead of custom ones, combine child elements for grouped context, switch layouts from horizontal to vertical, use the ViewThatFits API, and add a Large Content Viewer where content can't grow. A boxed list of "A11y Principles": be curious and ask the right questions, convenience for you is independence for me, set aside preconceptions, it's part of the process, and care. The iOSDevUK 2026 logo appears bottom right, with a credit reading "sketch by @felibe444".
