AssistiveTouch lets Apple Watch users perform tasks without touching the screen

USATODAY - Tech Top Stories

Apple Watch users know they can use their device handsfree thanks to voice assistant Siri. But a new update allows wearers to perform tasks with specific hand gestures. The feature is called Assistive Touch, and it's been added "to support users with limited mobility," Apple said in a statement announcing the features Wednesday. The feature is among several announced by the tech giant to make their products more accessible to users. Apple also introduce eye tracking for the iPad, one-on-one sign language interpretation through SignTime, and new ways to explore images using the VoiceOver tool.
