Earlier this month the IDEAL Group subsidiary, Apps4Android, announced
the release of Accessibility Application Installers® and Best Voices
for Android®. What does this mean? This means that consumers who have
purchased an Android smart device have the ability to download and
install additional third-party accessibility applications that could
improve your experience with the devices' built in accessibility
features.

Accessibility Application Installers® allow you to easily adjust the
existing accessibility settings and add additional accessibility
applications such as a talking email client, video magnifier,
accessible music player and GPS navigation aids. For use with
text-to-speech applications, Best Voices for Android® allows you to
easily comparison shop for SVOX Pico voices with a variety of language
choices.

These applications are tailored per carrier and per version of the
Android Operating System, so consequently not all options will be
available depending upon the your phone's configuration. Despite this,
the installer will walk you through the process of downloading and
installing the Accessibility Application and will assist in setting up
the device with the most useful accessibility applications available
for the Android device.
