How can I reed a labels from screen

[papavasileiou87 (Ioannis Papavasileiou)]

Hi!
I want to build an application for blind people. I need to read labels from the screen or from other applications to spech them like Talkback on Android. Of course I need the accessibility permission but after that? Have anyone idea how can I do that?

Hi,
For your app you can get text for label and used text to speech component to speech the label content.

Read the documentation

Text To Speech - Kodular Docs

To read label from other app’s, i think you can’t do that ( I hope to be wrong )

Greetings.

from other applications

Unfortunately this requires a Service and thus not possible via any of the Builders:

Create your own accessibility service  |  Android Developers

@bestprintsf

text to speech component

@bestprintsf is correct you use the TTS Component to read your apps text.

We had a small topic about that a few weeks ago.

How do I use Talkback or other accessibility features?

Hello! First of all, as a non-native english speaker, I apologize for any grammar, vocabulary or spelling mistakes. I’m making a game in Kodular, and I would like to add some sort of accessibility feature, especially for those who are visually impaired. For instance, I wanted to edit the text that’s read aloud in TalkBack, one of Android’s native accessibility features, so my game can become more comprehensible to people who use it. However, I could not find any such thing neither in the block…

Thanks for your replies. I understand that is not possible to do that.

I don’t know if it is not possible. The other user was able to get it to work on button text. Did you try?
