Quick tip of the day

One of the best Android accessibility features that hardly anyone knows about is Live Caption. It automatically captions any speech playing on your phone, including podcasts, video calls, audio messages, phone calls and videos. It’s remarkable.

Live Caption works on the Pixel 2 and up and other select Android phones. To turn it on and off:

  • Press the up or down volume button.
  • Under the volume controls, tap Live Caption.

Google says captions are processed locally, are not stored, and never leave your phone.

😍 That’s just one hidden smartphone feature I love. Scan this list for secrets to try on your Android or iPhone.
