Updates:
Sound Actions for Switch Control. Control iPhone or iPad with simple mouth sounds — such as a click, pop, or “ee” sound — without the need for physical buttons, switches, or complex verbal commands.
Wireless game controller support. Connected wireless game controllers can now be used as external adaptive switches for Switch Control. Popular controllers, including DualShock 4, Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2, and the Xbox Adaptive Controller, can now have their buttons assigned as actions to operate iPhone or iPad with Switch Control.
Screen Recognition. Screen Recognition automatically detects interface controls to aid in navigating your apps, making them more accessible. This VoiceOver feature is coming to Switch Control with improved detection for tab, checkbox, and radio button states, heading and modal elements, element grouping, and more.
FileVault login and macOS Recovery support. For Intel processors, macOS accessibility features were limited when logging in to encrypted disks or fixing issues in macOS Recovery. Apple silicon allows macOS to support Switch Control in these additional areas. This feature is available only for Mac with M1.
