NVDA 2023.3 Beta 2 for Android Installation

The latest version of NVDA, a free and open-source screen reader software, has been released in the form of NVDA 2023.3 Beta 2 for Android. This new build is packed with exciting features and improvements that will enhance your overall user experience.

One of the notable changes in this release is the ability to opt-out unwanted drivers from automatic detection, which can improve autodetection performance. Additionally, several braille fixes have been implemented to improve device detection and caret movement.

Another significant feature introduced in NVDA 2023.3 Beta 2 for Android is the ability to periodically refresh OCR results, speaking new text as it appears. This feature can be configured in the Windows OCR category of NVDA's settings dialog.

The performance, responsiveness, and stability of audio output have also been improved in this release. A new Audio settings panel has been created, which allows users to control the volume of NVDA sounds and beeps or have them follow the volume of the voice being used.

For those who want to return to the stable release channel, they can manually upgrade to the latest stable build. Users can also opt-in to the beta/RC channel, which will keep them up-to-date with the latest NVDA version, identical to the latest stable build if no newer beta/RC is available.

The second Release Candidate (RC2) of NVDA 2023.3 is now available for download and testing. We encourage all users to download this RC and provide feedback to help shape the final release of NVDA 2023.3.
