This Android security setting is meant to limit which apps can see and control your screen. On Android 17 and later, Android allows only accessibility tools, such as screen readers, to use an accessibility service. On Android 16, Typing Hero turns the new accessibility service off itself.</li> </ul> </section> <section class="release__group"> <h3 class="change">Improved</h3> <ul> <li>Send Commands, with the new accessibility service</li> <li>Lists in dialogs follow the Density setting</li> <li>Keyboard navigation in Clipboard</li> <li>Screen reader support in onboarding</li> </ul> </section> <section class="release__group"> <h3 class="change">Fixed</h3> <ul> <li>Settings lost when updating from some older versions.
