As part of the fleet of the latest Android features Google announced, Google TalkBack is one of them, a feature which we could say has been designed for human welfare.
Google TalkBack helps visually impaired individuals navigate menus and other places without difficulties and with a clear display.
TalkBack leverages the innovative edge of AI, which aligns with Google's plans to make the most of Gemini to ensure an enhancement of the feature, letting it deliver audio descriptions for images without requiring embedded alt text for them.

While it's beyond a fair deal for those who heavily rely on such features, the disheartening part is that not all Android devices are going to embrace this feature, and a handful of them would be those Samsung Galaxy devices that run on One UI.

The South Korean tech giant has been indulged in efforts to stand out in the longstanding battle of AI-powered features for a considerable amount of time, especially since it launched the Galaxy S24 series, packing Galaxy AI with a wide range of features like Circle to Search, Interpreter mode, Instant Slow-Mo, Generative Edit, and more.
