Accessibility Support Tool

Make common smartphone actions easier with fewer movements.

Accessibility Support Tool is designed to assist users who have difficulty performing precise touch operations, including people with shaky fingers or limited hand movement.

Create shortcuts or widgets on your Home screen to quickly open notifications, Quick Settings, Recent Apps, the power menu, screen lock, and other commonly used device functions.

By using the AccessibilityService API, actions that normally require several steps can be performed more easily with a single tap.
