Hi
I'm looking for a bit of clarity here.
I have purchased one of the new Amazon Fire tablets, which runs Android. It
also has many Amazon presets I believe.
I purchased it for my young sighted granddaughter but know I'll have to keep
an eye on it for updates, app purchases, parental protection settings etc.
I have used android a little, but could someone please keep me right on the
following questions?
1. IDoes tthis tablet run standard Android/Google speech packages or
does Amazon have its own app, or hinder the use of the android/google ones.
2. 2. If Androoid/google apps are appropriate, which ones and is there
a simple guide to get started with them for a blind person.
3. 3. I envisage not using the speech until needed, allowing my
granddaughter a non-speech environment. Could someone tell me the actions
to switch it on and off. (Also perhaps point the way to other gestures in a
document as well)
4. 4. Which parental protection apps might be useful and accessible,
especially for limiting internet sites to those appropriate for a young
person?
5. Thanks for any help provided.
