Android Accessibility Suite for Android

Android Accessibility Suite is a collection of accessibility tools by Google LLC that helps you use an Android device eyes-free, with a switch device, or with on-screen controls that are easier to see and reach.

Instead of a single app, the suite bundles several utilities that share one goal: making everyday phone tasks less dependent on precise touch or clear vision. TalkBack provides spoken feedback and gesture navigation for people who cannot see the screen. Select to Speak lets you point at on-screen text and have it read aloud. The Accessibility Menu adds a large, always-available panel for actions like locking the device, adjusting volume and brightness, or taking a screenshot. The suite also includes an on-screen braille keyboard for typing.

This is a practical choice for anyone who needs greater control over how their device talks, listens, and responds. It suits people with visual impairments, users who prefer voice interaction, and those who control their phone through external switches or a physical keyboard. The core features ship as part of the suite, so you get a range of assistance options in one package rather than hunting for separate downloads. It runs on Android 9 and newer and stays current with regular updates from Google.

Latest changes

The latest update to Android Accessibility Suite, released on September 29, 2026, brings TalkBack 17.0 with several refinements. You'll find more options for customizing your braille display, a more dependable keyboard experience, and additional reading control hints when navigating with a physical keyboard. These changes aim to make the screen reader more flexible and responsive for a wider range of users and setups.

The suite is for people who want a more accessible everyday phone experience: those with low vision or blindness who rely on spoken feedback, users who prefer select-and-listen reading, people who use external switches or a physical keyboard, and anyone who finds the default controls hard to reach and wants a larger on-screen menu.

After installing, open your phone's Settings, choose Accessibility, and pick the tool you need: TalkBack for spoken feedback, Select to Speak for reading text aloud, or Accessibility Menu for a larger control panel. If you use a physical keyboard, look for the extra reading control hints in TalkBack. Note that TalkBack for Wear devices requires Wear OS 3.0 or later.

Android Accessibility Suite brings together the most essential Android assistance tools in one free package. If you need spoken feedback, switch control, or a simpler way to reach common actions, this suite is a reliable everyday companion that keeps improving with each update.
