Description

Voice Access helps anyone who has difficulty manipulating a touch screen (e.g. due to paralysis, tremor, or temporary injury) use their Android device by voice.

Voice Access provides many voice commands for:
- Basic navigation (e.g. "go back", "go home", "open Gmail")
- Controlling the current screen (e.g. "tap next", "scroll down")
- Text editing and dictation (e.g. "type hello", "replace coffee with tea")

You can also say "Help" any time to see a short list of commands.

Voice Access includes a tutorial which introduces the most common voice commands (starting Voice Access, tapping, scrolling, basic text editing, and getting help).

You can use the Google Assistant to start Voice Access by saying "Hey Google, Voice Access". To do this, you’ll need to enable "Hey Google" detection. You can also tap either the Voice Access notification or a blue Voice Access button and start talking.

To pause Voice Access temporarily, just say "stop listening". To disable Voice Access completely, go to Settings > Accessibility > Voice Access and turn off the switch.

For additional support, see Voice Access help.

This app uses the AccessibilityService API to help users with motor impairments. It uses the API to collect information about the controls on the screen and activate them based on the user’s spoken instructions.

Recent changes:
We’ve simplified activation! Use the accessibility floating button to toggle Voice Access listening mode on/off. This shortcut can be customized to volume keys, gesture, or navigation bar button. Plus, we've made improvements to multi-window scenarios, only showing labels on the focused app, reducing screen clutter.

Comments on Voice Access for Android

★★★★★ Aljay Blackwood · Jun 23, 2026

Good however I would love more from this app in the future like only user voice recognition and the ability to hide the performed action text

★★★★★ Vishal Jaiswal · Jun 23, 2026

Best work no doubt, and thank you so much for all your efforts

★☆☆☆☆ kenneth. .millican · Jul 2, 2026

This isn't an app, it's a virus. I don't want it and can't uninstall it. It's a waste of memory. I have to uninstall the incessant updates multiple times a day just to keep from draining my phone's memory.

★☆☆☆☆ Maxx Smooth · Jul 2, 2026

Terrible. It is "unable to understand" ANYTHING. It couldn't even navigate the instructions to open ITSELF in settings & that was with being as specific & as literal as you can be. "Voice Access" 》 Nothing. This one was really disappointing & it's quite irritating how it tries to subtly appear from time to time again on the notifications pull-down, despite being turned-off & avoided. Lastly, Wouldn't recommend this__(outside from the baseline, systematic UI requirements it holds by default)🤣👉

★☆☆☆☆ Larry Williams · Jun 30, 2026

Didn't request this app, didn't want it on my phone. We need a mechanism to stop unwanted apps from being installed on our phone without our permission.
