Vaibhav DwivediDay 17: Dynamic Font Scaling for Accessibility 🔤
Today, let me share a simple tip on how to implement Dynamic Font Scaling in your SwiftUI app to enhance accessibility.
Why Use Dynamic Font Scaling?
- Accessibility: Supports users with visual impairments by allowing them to adjust text sizes according to their preferences.
- User Experience: Creates a more comfortable reading experience, improving usability for all users.
- Consistency: Maintains a cohesive design as text scales across different devices and settings.
Code Example: Implementing Dynamic Font Scaling
import SwiftUI
struct ContentView: View {
var body: some View {
VStack(spacing: 20) {
Text("Welcome to My App!")
.font(.largeTitle) // Large title using dynamic type
.padding()
Text("This text will scale based on user settings.")
.font(.body) // Body text using dynamic type
.padding()
Text("Adjust the text size in Settings > Accessibility > Display & Text Size.")
.font(.caption) // Caption text using dynamic type
.padding()
}
.padding()
.multilineTextAlignment(.center) // Center align the text for a better layout
}
}
struct DynamicFontScalingApp: App {
var body: some Scene {
WindowGroup {
ContentView() // Main content view
}
}
}
By supporting users’ preferences for text size, you create a more inclusive environment for all.
Happy Coding!
