However, if you find any fixes, enhancements or regressions for blind and low vision users, do please let us know by posting a comment below.
iOS 13.1.3 and iPadOS 13.1.3 are available via Over-the-Air Update (Settings > General > Software Update) or via iTunes on a Mac or PC.
Before updating, we strongly recommend making a full and complete backup of your device (either in iTunes or iCloud, depending on personal preference). This will ensure that, in the unlikely event that something goes wrong during the update process, you will have a current backup on hand in case a device restore becomes necessary. Also, if using OTA update, we recommend plugging your device into a power source for the duration of the download/installation process, so as to prevent the unlikely event of your battery going dead during the update.
More information on how to update the software on your device is available on this Apple Support page.
To install macOS Catalina Supplemental Update, choose System Preferences from the Apple menu, then click the Software Update preference pane to check for updates. If any updates are available, click the Update Now button to install them. You can also get to Software Update via Apple menu > About This Mac, then click on the Software Update button in the Overview section.

...so as to prevent the unlikely event of your battery going dead during the update.
Bit of early morning pedantry here - surely if, say, i begin to update when my battery is at, say, 5% it's highly likely my battery will go dead during the update? That's just a quibble, however. I've just updated and really, really hope the watch notifications thing is fixed. there have been definite issues since updating. I'm also pleased to see that the issue preventing the device from vibrating or ringing has gone. I experienced this the other day, and although a restart resolved it I'm glad I'm not alone.
Male focus jumping around has been fixed
The problem where the oh focus jumps around has been fix in the Mail application The problem where if you’re used to languages sometimes VO speaks both languages in the same sentence has not been fixed
VO interrupted by "Application Dialogue" message
Since i updated to Catalina I am finding that VO gets interrupted by the words "Application Dialogue" and then stops reading whatever it was busy with. Whilst doing so, the focus area jumps to somewhere near the bottom left of the screen. I use Zoom and VO together. Has anyone else experienced this as I reported it to Apple and they have tried to find my issue, but say they can't recreate it. I also find, with VO and zoom on, that when i use the trackpad to open a dropdown list, often the focus jumps away from the dropdown and the dropdown does open. Repeat a couple of times and it works.
VO jumping around mail app has not been fixed
I’m sorry to report that the VO bag that focus shifts around in the mail app has not been fixed. It’s a beer fixed when I tried couple of hours ago but now I got again the wrong with you here. Behavior
Which device operating system
Which device and or which operating system do you mean? Please allways give that information. Vo jumping around in mail app in iPhone or iPad or what?
What about accessibility?
What about accessibility?
Is it just me or does anyone else notice that there are esentially no accessibility bug fixes in any of the iOS 13 updates? That said, I'm still running iOS 12, and at this rate, it looks like I'll be running it for quite a while yet. At least I am thankful that Apple has apparently decided not to be so pushy about upgrading to iOS 13, so far I've have recieved only one notification about the upgrade being available.
