BARD Mobile Android New Release

By Alicia Waters | May 7, 2021

NLS has released version 1.3.1 (build 49) of BARD Mobile Android, which supports Android 7 through Android 11. This new version includes configurable visual contrast settings.

BARD Mobile Android users can adjust their screen contrast by selecting Settings then Contrast. There are four different high-contrast settings in black, white, and yellow. These are in addition to the Android device’s Visibility enhancements, which can be adjusted under both the general Accessibility Settings for the device and from within the BARD Mobile app Settings.

BARD Mobile Android users can identify the version of the app running on their devices by selecting Settings, then checking the Application Version. Users who have enabled automatic updates for BARD Mobile in the Google Play Store will get version 1.3.1 seamlessly, while others will need to manually update BARD Mobile Android through the Google Play Store.
