More control over accessibility preferences in Google Docs, Sheets, Slides, and Drawings

News | 16.08.2022

Over the years, Google launched features to support its ongoing accessibility efforts to ensure Google products work well for everyone.

For users of screen readers, braille devices, screen magnifiers, and more, Google improves the ability to adjust your accessibility preferences for Google Docs, Sheets, Slides, and Drawings separately.

Rather than having the same accessibility settings apply across these products, you’re now able to set preferences for each product individually.

Accessibility settings can now be personalized for Docs, Sheets, Slides, and Drawings

We all expect this change to make it easier to ensure accessibility settings are personalized to best meet each user’s needs.

Getting started In your document, spreadsheet, slide deck, or drawing, navigate to Tools > Accessibility > select your preferred settings.
