Google has announced four new AI-powered accessibility features for Pixel and Android devices.

These innovative updates include:

– Guided Frame: An AI-powered camera feature that provides spoken guidance for taking perfectly framed photos and selfies, especially helpful for people who are blind or with low vision.

– Magnifier: An AI-driven app that uses the phone’s camera to zoom into surroundings, search for specific words, and use picture-in-picture format.

– Live Transcribe Dual Mode: A new mode for foldable phones that enables all speakers in a conversation to see their own transcriptions, facilitating effortless communication.

– Expanded Live Caption and Live Transcribe languages: Adding Korean, Polish, Portuguese, Russian, Chinese, Turkish, and Vietnamese to the list of supported languages, making Android devices more accessible.

These new features are now available on compatible devices, enhancing the overall accessibility of Google’s products.
