Sound unbelievable right? But that’s the truth, it’s 2021 and we are evolving as fast as we could. Nothing seems to be impossible in the Genz generation. Google has always been at the forefront in introducing novel features to its operating system with every new version of Android. American tech-giant  Google  is working on a new  Android  12 accessibility feature to let users control their phone using facial expressions. Mashable India quoted a report by XDADevelopers that says the 'Camera Switches feature', which is one of the accessibility services in the  Android  Accessibility Suite app, will support setting gestures to specific controls.
