Android launcher to help the visually impaired
Nowadays, it is a must to have a cell-phone. However, the use of new technologies is more complicated for our elders and the visually impaired.
How many times have your parents or grandparents told you that they do not see the numbers on the phone? Download the APK file of this app and change your Android interface for one with larger icons and font to make cell phones more accessible to people with difficulties.
A cell phone within everyone's reach
BIG Launcher is a launcher for Android devices specially designed for people with visual issues or other difficulties that hinders the regular use of a cell-phone. Click this app's icon and turn your smartphone's interface into another much more accessible one with giant icons.
A quick and easy home screen targeting the elderly and the visually impaired.
Go to the main menu to see the time, date, battery status, and coverage. BIG Launcher also has six icon shortcuts:
- Phone call.
- Sending SMS (although to use it, you need to download an additional app).
- Photo camera.
- Gallery.
- SOS button to ask for help.
- Applications.
The icons of this app are distinctively big, so everyone can see them better. Letters are also bigger, and you can make them even bigger. This app also includes three color themes and you can download others from the Internet.
Actually, this tool does not work as a regular launcher; you need to open the app every time you want to use it. However, it offers a great (and much needed) feature that can help many people.
Requirements and additional information:
- Minimum operating system requirements: Android 5.0
- Offers in-app purchases.
