If you need help reading text on a screen, you can turn on accessibility settings for a few Google products in your Google Account.
Turn screen reader on or off
The screen reader setting applies only to Google Docs, Sheets, Slides, Forms, and Drawings on a browser, like Chrome. When you use these products, a screen reader can read text on your screen aloud.
For this setting to work, you need to have a screen reader, like NVDA, JAWS, VoiceOver, or ChromeVox.
