if youre unfamiliar, its an accessibility app made by google, for controlling your phone with your voice. this is different to the “OK google” thing.
I’m disabled, and I avoided owning a phone for many years because they’re so painful to use. but this year I finally had to get one, so I got a samsung s10e. but this voice access app is just… terrible? its really buggy, struggles to understand me way worse than Talon (a PC voice control program), and loves to do things I don’t tell it to.
it also doesn’t even make my phone fully accessible, theres tons of gestures it just can’t do, and I can’t add custom ones.
basically… am I doing something wrong? is there some trick I don’t know about? or is android accessibility really this bad? is there anything I can do?
Is that not what an S10e is?
Sadly no, s10e launched March 2019, 4 years ago and was specifically the non-flagship price compromise version of the s10 and s10+.
I wish a couple of years didn’t make a big a difference as it does.
Well, yes and no, good phone from 4 years ago it’s still very usable now, unlike 6-7 years ago, before Xiaomi showed the world budget phones don’t have to be shitty
2019 was 4 years ago, I just upgraded from a phone I bought in 2019
S10e isn’t a bad phone tho
Not to mention that it isn’t dependent on the phone since it’s a standard android app
Standard Android app on a Samsung implementation of an Android OS UI. These things are not as deeply intertwined as they might seem. Not even the different Android Accessibility apps and settings are guaranteed to work well together, because they’re often made by entirely different teams.
