Talk Forward is a powerful screen reader that makes your Android phone and tablet fully usable by voice and touch — built for blind and low-vision users who want speed, control, and modern features.
Refined for responsiveness, Talk Forward focuses on what matters most: fast, reliable feedback and deep customization, so the device works the way you do.
KEY FEATURES
• Fast, fluid navigation — explore the screen by touch with low-latency speech and clear, configurable verbosity.
• Fully customizable gestures — assign one- and two-finger swipes to the actions you use most, globally or per app.
• Automatic image descriptions — get descriptions of images, icons, and unlabeled controls.
• On-device translation — translate the focused text instantly, offline and free.
• Smart voice dictation — speak naturally; optional cleanup removes hesitations and adds punctuation.
• Built-in braille keyboard — type braille directly on the screen, with support for many languages and tables.
• Pronunciation dictionary — teach the screen reader how to say names and terms your way, globally or per app.
• Phones and tablets — feedback tuned for real, everyday use on any screen size.
Talk Forward is built with and for its community, and improves continuously based on real user feedback.
ACCESSIBILITY NOTE
Talk Forward uses Android's accessibility services to read screen content aloud and let you control your device entirely by touch and gestures. This access is used only to provide screen-reader functionality on your device.

Offline Parakeet dictation: a downloadable model writes almost as well as online dictation, sends nothing anywhere, works with no network and punctuates on its own.
On-device dictation: an offline-only engine, spoken punctuation, and editing text by voice.
Braille keyboard: the dots follow how you hold the phone.
Letter keyboard: a row of digits, and the app now resizes above the keys.
Fixes: sound settings crashing, the dialer keypad, and announcements wrongly silenced.
