Apple Team,
   I have a question regarding the iOS and the iOS accessibility.  If the accessibility feature is turned ON, can the iOS call out to other applications and say "iOS accessibility is active"?  

The reason I'm asking is, I'm trying to develop an API where visually impaired users, who have accessibility ON, can access accessible information online.  

For example: companies such as Domino's Pizza, and Macy's do not offer accessible websites/apps.  I'm trying to create an API that will automatically convert the data on the website/app and make it accessible.  Doing this, I would need the iOS to call out "accessibility turned ON".


by accessibility feature, do you mean VoiceOver?

An app can check if VoiceOver is running with UIAccessibilityIsVoiceOverRunning()

Thank you,
