Apple has today released version 26.3.1 of the iOS, iPadOS, and macOS platforms, bringing support for the new Studio Display and Studio Display XDR announced yesterday, along with other unspecified bug fixes.

As the 26.3.1 updates were not distributed to external testers prior to their release, we do not have any information on whether they contain any accessibility fixes for blind, deaf blind, or low vision users at the time of writing. However, as version 26.4 is on the way and in public testing, we do not expect today's releases to contain any such fixes. If you spot any changes in your own use of these releases, please do let us know by posting a comment below.
