# allowsAccessibilityAlternativeInputMethods

A Boolean value that indicates whether to allow alternative input methods for accessibility features during an assessment.

## Declaration

```swift
var allowsAccessibilityAlternativeInputMethods: Bool { get set }
```

## Discussion

Discussion When the Accessibility Keyboard or Switch Control is enabled, alternative input methods such as Dwell Control may be available. An assessment session disables these alternative input methods by default, but you can allow them by setting allowsAccessibilityAlternativeInputMethods to YES in the AEAssessmentConfiguration instance that you use to initialize a session. note: This property only takes effect when allowsAccessibilityKeyboard or allowsAccessibilitySwitchControl is YES.
