The BIG Launcher application offers a practical and convenient launcher for Android devices specially aimed at the visually impaired and the elderly.

Android launcher for people with vision problems

Today it is almost essential to have a mobile phone. However, the use of new technologies is somewhat difficult for the oldest among us and those with vision problems.

How many times have our parents or grandparents told us they can't recognize phone numbers on cell phones? Downloading the APK file of this app will help us modify the interface of our Android with icons and a larger font, making cell phones more accessible to people with disabilities.

A cell phone within reach

BIG Launcher is a launcher for Android devices specially designed for people who suffer from some kind of vision problems or other inconveniences that make it difficult to use a mobile phone regularly. Touching the icon of this app will change the interface of our smartphone, making it much more accessible thanks to the huge icons.

In this way, in the main menu we will see the time, date, battery status and coverage. In addition, there are six icons with shortcuts:

• Call up.
• Send SMS (although you need to download an additional app to use it).
• camera.
• Gallery.
• SOS button to call for help.
• app.

What is special about this application is that the icons are very large so that they are more recognizable. The font is also bigger and we can enlarge it even more. Above that there are three color themes and we can download more from the web.

In reality, this tool doesn't work as an ordinary launcher, since we'll have to open the app every time we want to use it. However, it offers us a great (and much-needed) feature that can help a lot of people.

Requirements and further information:

• Minimum operating system requirements: Android 2.2.
