Language and accessibility settings

Adapting your browser to suit your needs

Everyone uses the web differently, and most browsers include helpful tools that make webpages easier to see, hear, understand, or navigate. By adjusting a few settings, you can tailor your browsing experience to suit your own needs and preferences.

You can adapt your browser by changing things like:

• Text size and page zoom
• Colour, contrast, and appearance
• Read aloud and text to speech features
• Translation tools and changing the language of a website
• Accessibility extensions that add extra support

The following pages provide guidance and tips on how you can use these features to make browsing easier and more comfortable.
