New updates have been rolling out this year from various phone brands ranging from Samsung’s OneUI 4.1 to Google fixes and the likes. Another Google update has landed and the sound section is the software of the moment. The Android sound amplifier gets a new UI as well as accuracy enhancements.
The Sound Amplifier was however introduced in 2019 and it’s a good thing the Big G hasn’t dumped the software. The Sound Amplifier aims to use the microphone present in your Android phone to filter sounds around you. The latest update by which the Android Sound Amplifier gets a new UI also issues improvement in background noise reduction and a faster and more accurate sound.
The android sound amplifier gets a new UI which is the Material You alongside a waveform similar to that found in Recorder apps on Google Pixel phones. A carousel is seen there which helps users pick input from the playing media or mic and then cards which enable users to boost quiet sounds and also enhance noise reduction
Android sound amplifier gets a new UI via the latest update, the Lookout app is also getting in on this
Google chose to update two of its accessibility apps, we’ve talked about the Android sound amplifier but sources also noticed changes in the Lookout app as well. Normally, the Lookout application makes use of the phone’s camera to provide you with the world’s information in different modes.
However, with the latest update, a New Images mode, although still in beta, allows you to “hear a description of an image by simply opening it from just about any app” using the Google image understanding ML model.
Two other interesting features have to be the ability to detect objects easier using the Explore Mode and then the Food label/barcode reader used for recognizing products specifically in Brazil and India.
The Lookout app can now be used without WiFi or data connection but you need to update the app from Playstore to get the new features. Many updates have been rolled out by the Big G, Android Auto has partaken, Pixel Buds Pro, Pixel phones and even Android sound amplifier gets a new UI. How impressive the company was.
