# accessibilityScrollStatus(for:)

Returns a string describing the content at the current offset in the scroll view.

```
optional func accessibilityScrollStatus(for scrollView: UIScrollView) -> String?
```

## Parameters

`scrollView`

The scroll view containing the content.

## Return Value

A custom status string for the current offset.

## Discussion

For example, in a user interface that scrolls through the books in a bookcase, you could return “Books 10 through 20”. By default, VoiceOver announces “Page *X* of *Y*” while scrolling.

Use the [`accessibilityAttributedScrollStatus(for:)`](/documentation/UIKit/UIScrollViewAccessibilityDelegate/accessibilityAttributedScrollStatus(for:)) method if portions of your string should be spoken in a different language.
