This feature is also meant to work alongside other accessibility settings if desired, such as ‘Bold Text’.

• To activate the ‘Accessibility’ features on your device select ‘Settings’ + ‘General’ + ‘Accessibility’.
• Tap to select the ‘Increase Contrast’

There are three toggle button options for ‘Increase Contrast’:

• ‘Reduce Transparency’. This improves the contrast on certain backgrounds to increase legibility.
• ‘Darken Colors’.
• ‘Reduce White Point’. This reduces the intensity of bright colours.
