Thanks for the tutorial, Chris! I had given up on the Accessibility Inspector after it kept crashing when I tried to use it with an app on the device. It's much better on the simulator.
It would be valuable to also mention the ability to check the focus order by using the left/right chevrons to navigate the accessibility tree the way VoiceOver does and the way a user might using left/right swipes with VoiceOver on. I have found inconsistencies in the focus order VoiceOver has vs. my former experience on web accessibility where document order is the focus order.
Do you know any way (either with the Accessibility Inspector or another tool or method) to inspect and/or navigate the keyboard tab order of a mobile app? The keyboard tab order only includes elements that a user would interact with, such as links, buttons, form fields and controls. I'm testing apps (both native and embedded web views) by using a Bluetooth keyboard (Logitech K480) paired with an iPhone 6 (iOS 11.1.1) and can't find a way to check keyboard tab order. I'm not sure if it's possible.
There isn't another way, unfortunately. The next version of WorldSpace for iOS will have rules based on focus order, there's a webinar coming up about the product, you should check that out!

Thanks, Ryan. The chevron navigation is very helpful to use to see each element.
Did you mention that you developed some kind of alternative to Accessibility Inspector? Share please
8:35 is it a false positive, or is it only making the font smaller? It looks like the font doesn't scale upwards past the base range?
Yeah it looks like it’s not supporting the largest accessibility font sizes. Just the default font sizes
Can we increase size of navigation text?

Good
You said nothing about how to connect an iPhone with a native mobile app open.
