Description

To narrate the post and comments. I don't want to turn on the accessibility options of Android because that might change how my phone works and I only need it for this app.

Add a play button to the floating toolbar that will narrate from what is at the top of the screen e.g. the post description or a comment, and scroll down and narrate the next comment and so on.

Thanks.

Research direction

Start by locating the floating toolbar and the screens that render post descriptions and comments. Trace how the visible content and scrolling are handled; done means a play button narrates the current post or comment and continues through subsequent comments without requiring Android-wide accessibility settings.
