Android is known for its accessibility features that make the operating system user-friendly for all. From enlarging the screen to reading text aloud, these options cater to a diverse range of users. However, there is always room for improvement, and it seems like Google is working on enhancing accessibility options in the upcoming Android 15 release.
In a recent QPR beta for Android 14, Google introduced some hidden “color contrast” settings, as uncovered by code expert Mishaal Rahman. These settings allow users to adjust the contrast of text, buttons, and icons within apps. You can choose from default, medium, high, or maximize text contrast levels with a preview feature to see the changes before applying them.
This new feature builds upon previous experiments with a “contrast level” slider in older Android versions. While still under development, these settings are likely to be included in the full Android 15 release expected this fall. It appears that these enhancements will replace the old “high-contrast” option in display settings, offering a more practical solution for users.
As we eagerly anticipate the Android 15 update, it’s exciting to see Google’s commitment to improving user experience and accessibility on mobile devices. Stay tuned for more interface changes and updates from Google as we approach the official release of Android 15 this fall. Exciting times are ahead for Android users!
