Smartphones are the world’s greatest tool for making life easier. However, not everyone uses smartphones in the same way. Some people have disabilities that hinder using phones and other tech. Likewise, technology companies have a responsibility to assist disabled folks in accessing experiences able-bodied individuals take for granted.
With that in mind, Google is announcing a whole slew of new accessibility-related updates today. These new features should make people’s lives easier and make the world more equitable.
