What's new with TalkBack 12.1

With TalkBack 12.1, there are automatic captions for unlabeled images that contain text and a new window navigation mode.

Window navigation

Window navigation mode lets you switch between different sections on your screen, like the notification bar, main content, and keyboard. 

To change windows:

  • On devices with multi-finger gestures: With 4 fingers, swipe down. 
  • On devices without multi-finger gestures: In one motion, swipe up then down to change reading controls. Repeat gesture until the windows navigation mode is selected, then swipe down with one finger to navigate to the next window.

Automatic captions for images with text 

TalkBack reads to you the text that appears in images that don't have a label. Your device automatically processes the image, which means that images aren’t sent to a server, and you don’t need an internet connection.
