> That's not how it's being received

If you don't need the feature, and don't like the feature, and you have to dig through accessibility settings to enable it, then it's a strong indication that the feature probably wasn't built for you

If you're curious about who this was built for, look up iPhone Switch Control [1] and you'll see how people with mobility issues otherwise use a touchscreen

Again, I understand the accessibility benefits of the feature and I'm not critiquing that. I responding to a hacker news audience mostly who want to hack this feature and I'm telling them not to bother


You said ‘the emperor has no clothes’, without caveats. For the intended audience, the emperor is indeed very snug


I literally started and ended with caveats:

> Eye tracking is very impressive technology, and foveated rendering is an excellent application...

> useful as an accessibility feature
