About this app

Developer Description

Scan accessibility quickly

Accessibility Scanner is a tool that scans an app’s user interface to provide recommendations on how to improve accessibility of the app. Accessibility Scanner enables anyone, not just developers, to quickly and easily identify a range of common accessibility improvements; for example, enlarging small touch targets, increasing contrast for text and images and providing content descriptions for unlabelled graphical elements.

Improving the accessibility of your app may allow you to reach a larger audience and provide a more inclusive experience, especially for users with disabilities. This often leads to improved user satisfaction, app ratings and user retention.

The improvements suggested by Accessibility Scanner can be easily shared with members of your development team to determine how they can be incorporated into the app.

To begin using Accessibility Scanner:

• Open the app and follow the prompts to turn on the Accessibility Scanner service.
• Navigate to the app you wish to scan and tap the floating Accessibility Scanner button.
• Choose to perform a single scan, or record an entire user journey across multiple interfaces.
• For more detailed instructions, follow this getting started guide: g.co/android/accessibility-scanner-help

This is a useful app, but it doesn't allow to export/import scan results and sending the results as screenshot and txt files is super annoying for coworkers (not tech ones) to understand the results (i.e. Designers), but if they were able to import the scan results and see them as it allows in the app would be super useful and easy to understand. It is sad to say, but this app lacks accessibility for sharing with no tech people.

Despite the functionality this app is supposed to provide the app itself is not accessible for people using screen reading software like TalkBack. Once I downloaded and opened the app other than being able to hear the explanation of turning on the app settings there is no other indication of where the settings are or how to access them or use the app. And no amount of swiping or touch navigation provides any further details. The app sounded good in theory but failed in practice.
