Yep indeed they do and I think that's the thing I find fascinating about
all the Android phones I've ever used or owned as opposed to the right,
damn boring and closed system that IOS offers.
For example the Sony xPeria x-Performance phone I have here plays a
sound when the battery charge has reached full, that's just plain
convenient.
In the past only sighted people would have known if the battery was
fully charged by picking the phone up and looking at the screen.
On the other hand the only way a person with a Vision Impairment would
have known would be to look at the battery status which actually doesn't
tell you whether the battery is "Full".
Other phones have other unique features, the Samsung Galaxy S6 I had
could recognise sounds, the chime of a doorbell for example - and act
upon that sound, send SMS messages, call a number and so on.
