A new haptic feedback framework could deliver better physical responses on Android devices, giving smartphone users more accessibility options.

Haptic (touch) feedback has many applications on smartphones. It adds immersion to mobile games and can also provide a physical response when you press buttons or interact with your smartphone screen. This opens up a lot of scope for accessibility features, especially for those who need tactile feedback to get the most out of their device.

Thanks to a new haptic framework from Lofelt, Android phones could finally see some major improvements to the way these systems work on those devices. Experts say it’s something that’s sorely needed.

“Lofelt is one of the few companies that really understands the potential and possibilities of the technology. What they are doing is absolutely commendable,” Sreejith Omanakuttan, a software engineer who advocates for haptic feedback, told Lifewire in an email.
