The accessibility options of Android phones are designed so that people with visual and motor disabilities and others can interact with their devices without this being a problem. Google’s operating system has different ways to help those who have this type of disability, but today we are going to focus on one in particular: making Android read the text that appears on the screen. In this way you can, for example, leave your mobile anywhere while you read this article out loud without having to worry about anything else.
How to enable on-screen text reading
First go to the settings of your terminal:
Button to access Android settings
Search later Accessibility and click on the name of the section:
Access to Android accessibility settings
Within this menu, we click on State Selection:
Section to activate text reading on Android
Next, click on Use service to activate it:
Enabling reading text aloud on Android
As soon as we activate it, any text we select will be read aloud by the operating system. Interestingly, on Android at least, this feature works quite well.
And because? Simple: since Google is very interested in commands to control their devices by voice, they have a lot of advantage in these conflicts compared to other manufacturers and operating systems. This also makes it possible that listening to the text that the phone reads us does not become monotonous.
As you can see, it is very easy to activate the reading of the text on the screen in Android, if you know what steps you have to take. With what we tell you here, you shouldn’t have any problem.
