Accessible apps should be the standard, and there's no reason why you wouldn't make your app accessible!
Making apps accessible is often seen as a 'roadmap issue.' Building new features is more important than working on accessibility. In my opinion, there's just a knowledge gap to solve. Adding accessibility labels, traits, or grouping elements should be part of normal development.
Many apps support dark mode, which is an accessibility feature as well! Once you've adopted it, you must test your views on it accordingly. Though: does it take that much time to verify?
What if you trained yourself to at least know the basics of adding VoiceOver support? You might be able to improve your app's VoiceOver navigation without even testing it.
Either way, this SwiftLee Weekly is unique and focuses on Accessibility articles only. I've curated each piece based on what I think helps you to gain that basic knowledge to improve your apps along the way.
