Working with the disability community to advance accessibility innovation is a core part of our mission to build for everyone. Here’s a look at our latest accessibility features that use AI — from Pixel Camera updates to more widely available captions.

Guided Frame, built with and for people with blindness or low vision, lets you take great photos and selfies with your Pixel Camera. Guided Frame will give spoken guidance to help you not only get your face in the frame, but also position the camera angle just right. Prompts will tell you to tilt your face up or down, or pan left to right before the camera auto-captures the photo. It will also announce that “lighting is low,” so you’ll know to move your phone to find a better shot. The latest update to Guided Frame also delivers improved object recognition, intelligent face filtering in group photos, and better focus on subjects even in complex scenes.
Previously, Guided Frame was only accessible through TalkBack, Android’s screen reader. Now you can also turn the feature on right from the camera settings, making it even easier for those who don’t use screen readers.
