UIAccessibility and Apple Pay voice-over interaction issue
ios,voiceover,uiaccessibility,applepay
You can restore focus to the alert by issuing a well-timed UIAccessibilityPostNotification(), passing UIAccessibilityScreenChangedNotification and the element to be focused. However, that's a hack to work around the details of how VoiceOver focuses on your app after returning from an out-of-process view controller. Please consider filing a bug report so...

Seeking advice for “dual mode” for increment/decrement of control with UIAccessibilityTraitAdjustable
UIAccessibilityTraitAdjustable uses a fixed, developer-defined increment size. You can adjust the slider with a larger step size in -accessibilityIncrement if you think users will find it tedious to adjust the control one unit at a time. VoiceOver users desiring finer control can use the pass-through gesture (double tap and hold)...
