iPhone 14 accessibility issue: Apple has added a Mac-like startup sound when you start the phone. My understanding is that many blind and low vision people, even within the company, wanted a concrete way to tell if their phone restarted.

Apple gave the iPhone 14 Pro its biggest design overhaul by removing the pill-shaped notch and I have to say they’re going in the right direction, the way it blends in with iOS is just top notch. pic.twitter.com/lyj2r7grMj

The iPhone 14 Plus is priced at Rs 89,900. iPhone 14 Pro starts at Rs 1,29,900 while iPhone 14 Pro Max from Rs 1,39,900.
Many made memes about how the iPhone 14 offers very few changes compared to its predecessor. However, some others praised the tech company for introducing features such as replacing the notch with a new tab design called “Dynamic Island” and bringing emergency SOS via satellite connection (although it’s only available in the US and Canada at the moment).
Steven Aquino, a tech reporter who covers accessibility and assistive technology, tweeted about the new iPhone additions and wrote: “iPhone 14 accessibility feature: Apple has added a Mac-like startup sound when you start the phone. My understanding is that many blind and visually impaired people, even within the company, wished for a concrete way to tell if their phone restarted.”
