I copied from Jen's message: I was doing some investigating yesterday, and I found out what the dynamic Island does. This is only for iPhone 14 and 14 pro max though. Here is an example or two:
1. Open Control Center 2. Start a screen recording 3. Exit out of control center with the screen recording still on. 4. Double tap on the dynamic Island which is right in the middle of the status bar. If you have a screen protector on your phone, the Dynamic Island is right in the middle of the top of it in between the pieces of glass or plastic that covers your phone. 5. VoiceOver will say, “Screen recording.” You can double tap this and the stop button will appear. It’s a handy way of stopping a screen recording. Example number 2: 1. Start a song playing. 2. Exit out of the music app and go back to your Home Screen. 3. Touch the Dynamic island and it will tell you the name of the song playing. You can double tap it to bring up the now playing screen. I think this will be a great little tool. I think they will probably do some more work on it though.

I did a whole thing on this very subject a little while ago. It is a very helpful feature for us voiceover users when it is not empty. Go through the archives and see if you can find it. It is called dynamic Island.
