My phone screen broke but everything else works fine except for the fact that I can’t see what’s happening on my phone, I was able to install an app which mirrors my phone and thus control my phone indirectly, but I was wondering if there was a way I could do basic functions like reading texts without seeing the screen. I mean, I am also curious what do people with visual disabilities use? Are there any apps like VoiceOver which help you read texts?

      hey… I actually ended up enabling TalkBack Thank you! It’s quite good. I mean, you gotta get the hang of it though. This whole ordeal has made me appreciate the efforts visually impaired people put into living their lives much more. I can’t handle a bloddy phone, imagine living your life like this.
