My phone screen broke but everything else works fine except for the fact that I can’t see what’s happening on my phone, I was able to install an app which mirrors my phone and thus control my phone indirectly, but I was wondering if there was a way I could do basic functions like reading texts without seeing the screen. I mean, I am also curious what do people with visual disabilities use? Are there any apps like VoiceOver which help you read texts?
Android phones have USB debugging options, which can be used to mirror the screen in another device (with input too). Besides that, you can take screenshots and read them by connecting the phone with USB and looking at the generated image files.
I once turned a phone with a broken screen into a server like this. It took a good amount of fiddling and guessing where exactly a button is, but it works.
true as it is (I have used Scrcpy, which is ideal for these kind of tasks, but unfortunately, I can’t take my laptop wherever I go and I don’t have another spare phone.
