Accessibility services are special features and
enhancements that make using the device easier. The
services available in Accessibility allow you to customize
the device to improve the experience of people with
physical, sensory or cognitive disabilities. You can turn
Accessibility features ON/OFF as needed.
Many of the services available in Accessibility will make
using the phone more comfortable for other users also.
