I've written an Android app that requires the use of the AccessibilityService
.
I know how to check to see if Accessibility is enabled or disabled on the phone, but I cannot work out a way to determine if my app has been specifically enabled within the accessibility menu.
I'm wanting to prompt the user if the AccessibilityService
is not running, but can't find a good way of doing this.
Is there any API methods that I might be missing that would let me know which accessibility services are enabled on the device?
I worked this one out myself in the end:
public boolean isAccessibilityEnabled() {
int accessibilityEnabled = 0;
final String LIGHTFLOW_ACCESSIBILITY_SERVICE = "com.example.test/com.example.text.ccessibilityService";
boolean accessibilityFound = false;
try {
accessibilityEnabled = Settings.Secure.getInt(this.getContentResolver(),android.provider.Settings.Secure.ACCESSIBILITY_ENABLED);
Log.d(LOGTAG, "ACCESSIBILITY: " + accessibilityEnabled);
} catch (SettingNotFoundException e) {
Log.d(LOGTAG, "Error finding setting, default accessibility to not found: " + e.getMessage());
}
TextUtils.SimpleStringSplitter mStringColonSplitter = new TextUtils.SimpleStringSplitter(':');
if (accessibilityEnabled==1) {
Log.d(LOGTAG, "***ACCESSIBILIY IS ENABLED***: ");
String settingValue = Settings.Secure.getString(getContentResolver(), Settings.Secure.ENABLED_ACCESSIBILITY_SERVICES);
Log.d(LOGTAG, "Setting: " + settingValue);
if (settingValue != null) {
TextUtils.SimpleStringSplitter splitter = mStringColonSplitter;
splitter.setString(settingValue);
while (splitter.hasNext()) {
String accessabilityService = splitter.next();
Log.d(LOGTAG, "Setting: " + accessabilityService);
if (accessabilityService.equalsIgnoreCase(ACCESSIBILITY_SERVICE_NAME)){
Log.d(LOGTAG, "We've found the correct setting - accessibility is switched on!");
return true;
}
}
}
Log.d(LOGTAG, "***END***");
}
else {
Log.d(LOGTAG, "***ACCESSIBILIY IS DISABLED***");
}
return accessibilityFound;
}
