With the iPhone XR’s 6.1-inch display, it might be harder for those with smaller hands to reach certain apps or parts of the display — especially one-handed. With the reachability feature turned on, all of your content can be brought down on the display whenever you’d like. Turn on reachability on iPhone is a useful feature to easily access the top of your screen.
Reachability is available to you no matter what app you’re in or what you’re doing on the 4.7 and 5.5-inch iPhone. It is meant to help you reach buttons and objects on the screen that may be too far for your thumb to reach otherwise.
