This talk introduces the basic ideas of Android accessibility. We cover the goals of accessibility, the model Android uses, and the basic mechanics of accessibility like labeling content, having minimum target sizes, and making sure text has good contrast. The talk also discusses how to test for accessibility and resources available when bugs are found. Finally, we share how to support users when doing nonstandard touch event handling and how to use the new ViewCompat APIs that make this much easier than it used to be.

Presented by: Phil Weaver, Casey Burkhardt & Qasid Sadiq
