So, there is an app for Android called Audex. This app has been developed
by a person from India. In the latest version he released a feature that
used context to attempt to put labels on unlabeled buttons. I have tested
this and it seems to work extremely well. I was able to use buttons in
things like Snapchat and an audio recording app that I have. I will taste
the Forum post below.


Hi Everyone!
Audex is no more for sounds only!
Version 5.0 has been released, which will change the landscape of
inaccessible controls forever.

Detailed description of this release:
Version 5.0:
Now, Audex is beyond only sounds!
This release is a major release and brings a feature, which will
change the landscape of inaccessible controls forever!
Yes, Smart Labeling System!
No more unlabeled buttons, EditBoxes, Dropdowns from next time!
Now, Audex will automaticly label every unlabeled control via it's
smart and inteligent algorithm.
This feature will work without manual intervention and label every
unlabeled control, no matter it's a button, EditBox, Dropdown or what
so ever!
This feature is named 'SLS' (Smart Labeling System) in short.
If you use SLS along with talkback's manual labeling system, the
accessibility will be drammaticly improved throughout the system and
applications.
SLS detects and creates the labels on many aspects and it's own algorithms.
The accuracy rate may vary for application to application.
SLS will suggest you the label smartly, and if you think that label
text could be modified according to your needs, then you can just
exclude that control from SLS system by clicking the top left button,
and then label the control with talkback accordingly.
If you've previously labeled some buttons via talkback and now
talkback is not reading those label, it's reading SLS provided labels,
then don't panic, just exclude that button from SLS by focusing to
that button then clicking the top left button on the screen which will
say: 'Exclude XXX button from SLS'.
You can reinclude that button into SLS anytime by focusing that button
and clicking on SLS button which is there on the top left of the
screen.
Whenever you focus any button where the smart labeling has been
applied, Audex will play distinct sound for that control.
Note: no algorithm on the earth is fullproof and 100% accurate, so,
don't bash on me if the app doesn't work as intended.
Many more Amazing and GroundBreaking features are on the way and coming
soon
