Short summary

A developer spent a week auditing 15 Android apps with an AI accessibility agent and discovered that mainstream apps like WhatsApp and Google offer full automation access, while local banking and government apps lack accessibility integration. The findings are guiding development of an AI-powered accessibility audit tool, revealing significant gaps in accessibility readiness.

  • Major apps (WhatsApp, Google) have full accessibility/automation support
  • Local banking and government apps lack accessibility integration
  • AI accessibility auditing is becoming a viable tool/product category
