Closes https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/177330 Contributes to https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/175878 ### Description This PR implements support for three new iOS accessibility motion features. - `Auto-Play Animated Images`: Informs the app when the user has chosen to pause automatically playing GIFs and other animated content. - `Auto-Play Video Previews`: Informs the app when the user has disabled the automatic playback of video previews. - `Prefer Non-Blinking Cursor`: Informs the app that the user prefers a non-blinking text insertion indicator in editable text fields. The original issue requested seven features. I was able to find and implement features with clear, public, and general-purpose APIs. The remaining features were not included for the following reasons: - `Vehicle Motion Cues`: No public API found. - `Auto-Play Message Effects`: No public API found. This is likely a feature exclusive to the Messages framework. - `Limit Frame Rate`: No public API found. - `Dim Flashing Lights`: There is a public API available [MADimFlashingLightsEnabled](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/mediaaccessibility/madimflashinglightsenabled()). It is intended for media playback frameworks. It's unclear if exposing this feature is necessary or actionable for a general-purpose application UI. | Feature Name | API | Flutter AccessibilityFeatures | | :-: | :-: | :-: | | Vehicle Motion Cues | - | - | | Dim Flashing Lights | [MADimFlashingLightsEnabled](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/mediaaccessibility/madimflashinglightsenabled()) | - | | Auto-Play Animated Images | [animatedImagesEnabled](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/accessibility/accessibilitysettings/animatedimagesenabled) | autoPlayAnimatedImages | | Auto-Play Video Previews | [isVideoAutoplayEnabled](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/uikit/uiaccessibility/isvideoautoplayenabled) | autoPlayVideos | | Auto-Play Message Effects | - | - | | Prefer Non-Blinking Cursor | [prefersNonBlinkingTextInsertionIndicator](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/accessibility/accessibilitysettings/prefersnonblinkingtextinsertionindicator) | deterministicCursor | | Limit Frame Rate | - | - | The `AccessibilityFeatures.swift` was introduced to refactor all native iOS accessibility logic into a single, dedicated class. This change moves the responsibility of querying settings and observing notifications out of `FlutterViewController.mm`, which cleans up the controller, simplifies future maintenance, and makes logic unit-testable. ### Demo https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/1b3e7a2f-03b4-4716-959e-dbeea938e4d2 <details closed><summary>Code sample</summary> ```dart import 'package:flutter/material.dart'; void main() { runApp( MaterialApp( debugShowCheckedModeBanner: false, home: Screen(), ), ); } class Screen extends StatefulWidget { @override State<Screen> createState() => _ScreenState(); } class _ScreenState extends State<Screen> with WidgetsBindingObserver { @override void initState() { super.initState(); WidgetsBinding.instance.addObserver(this); } @override void didChangeAccessibilityFeatures() { super.didChangeAccessibilityFeatures(); if (mounted) { setState(() {}); } } @override void dispose() { WidgetsBinding.instance.removeObserver(this); super.dispose(); } @override Widget build(BuildContext context) { final accessibilityFeatures = View.of( context, ).platformDispatcher.accessibilityFeatures; return Scaffold( body: Center( child: Column( spacing: 10, mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center, children: [ for (final feature in [ 'accessibleNavigation: ${accessibilityFeatures.accessibleNavigation}', 'invertColors: ${accessibilityFeatures.invertColors}', 'disableAnimations: ${accessibilityFeatures.disableAnimations}', 'boldText: ${accessibilityFeatures.boldText}', 'reduceMotion: ${accessibilityFeatures.reduceMotion}', 'highContrast: ${accessibilityFeatures.highContrast}', 'onOffSwitchLabels: ${accessibilityFeatures.onOffSwitchLabels}', 'supportsAnnounce: ${accessibilityFeatures.supportsAnnounce}', 'autoPlayAnimatedImages: ${accessibilityFeatures.autoPlayAnimatedImages}', 'autoPlayVideos: ${accessibilityFeatures.autoPlayVideos}', 'deterministicCursor: ${accessibilityFeatures.deterministicCursor}', ]) Text(feature), ], ), ), ); } } ``` </details> ## Pre-launch Checklist - [X] I read the [Contributor Guide] and followed the process outlined there for submitting PRs. - [X] I read the [Tree Hygiene] wiki page, which explains my responsibilities. - [X] I read and followed the [Flutter Style Guide], including [Features we expect every widget to implement]. - [X] I signed the [CLA]. - [X] I listed at least one issue that this PR fixes in the description above. - [X] I updated/added relevant documentation (doc comments with `///`). - [X] I added new tests to check the change I am making, or this PR is [test-exempt]. - [X] I followed the [breaking change policy] and added [Data Driven Fixes] where supported. - [X] All existing and new tests are passing. <!-- Links --> [Contributor Guide]: https://github.com/flutter/flutter/blob/main/docs/contributing/Tree-hygiene.md#overview [Tree Hygiene]: https://github.com/flutter/flutter/blob/main/docs/contributing/Tree-hygiene.md [test-exempt]: https://github.com/flutter/flutter/blob/main/docs/contributing/Tree-hygiene.md#tests [Flutter Style Guide]: https://github.com/flutter/flutter/blob/main/docs/contributing/Style-guide-for-Flutter-repo.md [Features we expect every widget to implement]: https://github.com/flutter/flutter/blob/main/docs/contributing/Style-guide-for-Flutter-repo.md#features-we-expect-every-widget-to-implement [CLA]: https://cla.developers.google.com/ [flutter/tests]: https://github.com/flutter/tests [breaking change policy]: https://github.com/flutter/flutter/blob/main/docs/contributing/Tree-hygiene.md#handling-breaking-changes [Discord]: https://github.com/flutter/flutter/blob/main/docs/contributing/Chat.md [Data Driven Fixes]: https://github.com/flutter/flutter/blob/main/docs/contributing/Data-driven-Fixes.md --------- Co-authored-by: chunhtai <47866232+chunhtai@users.noreply.github.com>
Flutter is Google's SDK for crafting beautiful, fast user experiences for mobile, web, and desktop from a single codebase. Flutter works with existing code, is used by developers and organizations around the world, and is free and open source.
Documentation
For release and other announcements, join the flutter-announce mailing list. Our documentation also tracks breaking changes across releases.
Terms of service
The Flutter tool may occasionally download resources from Google servers. By downloading or using the Flutter SDK, you agree to the Google Terms of Service: https://policies.google.com/terms
For example, when installed from GitHub (as opposed to from a prepackaged
archive), the Flutter tool will download the Dart SDK from Google servers
immediately when first run, as it is used to execute the flutter tool itself.
This will also occur when Flutter is upgraded (e.g. by running the flutter upgrade command).
About Flutter
We think Flutter will help you create beautiful, fast apps, with a productive, extensible and open development model, whether you're targeting iOS or Android, web, Windows, macOS, Linux or embedding it as the UI toolkit for a platform of your choice.
Beautiful user experiences
We want to enable designers to deliver their full creative vision without being forced to water it down due to limitations of the underlying framework. Flutter's layered architecture gives you control over every pixel on the screen and its powerful compositing capabilities let you overlay and animate graphics, video, text, and controls without limitation. Flutter includes a full set of widgets that deliver pixel-perfect experiences whether you're building for iOS (Cupertino) or other platforms (Material), along with support for customizing or creating entirely new visual components.
Fast results
Flutter is fast. It's powered by hardware-accelerated 2D graphics libraries like Skia (which underpins Chrome and Android) and Impeller. We architected Flutter to support glitch-free, jank-free graphics at the native speed of your device.
Flutter code is powered by the world-class Dart programming language, which enables compilation to 32-bit and 64-bit ARM machine code for iOS and Android, JavaScript and WebAssembly for the web, as well as Intel x64 and ARM for desktop devices.
Productive development
Flutter offers stateful hot reload, allowing you to make changes to your code and see the results instantly without restarting your app or losing its state.
Extensible and open model
Flutter works with any development tool (or none at all), and also includes editor plug-ins for both Visual Studio Code and IntelliJ / Android Studio. Flutter provides tens of thousands of packages to speed your development, regardless of your target platform. And accessing other native code is easy, with support for both FFI (on Android, on iOS, on macOS, and on Windows) as well as platform-specific APIs.
Flutter is a fully open-source project, and we welcome contributions. Information on how to get started can be found in our contributor guide.
