"Reading Mode" on Android is now running in the background

In December, a new application from Google appeared on Android: "Reading Mode". It allows users with visual impairments and dyslexia to customize the display of text for themselves: change the contrast, size and type of font, as well as highlight the main thing on the page. The application also has speech synthesis - and now it does not require you to keep the "Reading Mode" open for work.

With the 1.1 update, text-to-speech is available even when you launch another application or lock your smartphone. At the same time, a media player appears on the notification panel with the ability to rewind or forward and pause playback.

With this innovation, the app can be used to turn text articles into podcasts and listen to interesting articles on the go.

Reading Mode 1.1 is rolling out gradually through Google Play. If the update is not yet available to you, but you want to try a new function, the current version is already available on APKMirror.
