KapSys SmartVision: códigos secretos y trucos para todos los modelos — guía completa 2026

KapSys es una empresa francesa especializada en dispositivos digitales de movilidad y comunicación inalámbrica para personas mayores, con baja visión y ciegas.

KapSys SmartVision is the world's first smartphone specifically designed for blind and visually impaired people, combining three access modes:

  1. Teclado físico — teclas grandes, realzadas, espaciadas, con relieves táctiles en las más importantes\n2. Pantalla táctil — accesible gracias a la síntesis de voz que anuncia cada elemento antes de activarlo\n3. Comandos de voz — tecla dedicada para dictar texto y controlar el teléfono

All KapSys devices run modified Android — all standard Android secret codes work normally.

FAQ

Can SmartVision be used without looking at the screen? Yes — designed exactly for this. Physical keyboard with tactile markings + speech synthesis on every touch + voice commands = complete phone use without any vision.

Difference between SmartVision3 OMNI and INITIUM? OMNI adds: KAPTEN vocal GPS (offline pedestrian navigation for blind users), OCR (reads printed text aloud), audiobook reader (ePub, Daisy, PDF). INITIUM has TalkBack, synthesis and voice commands without these three functions.

Can normal apps be installed on SmartVision? Yes — standard Android. All Play Store apps can be installed. Apps with good TalkBack support (Gmail, WhatsApp, Google Maps, Spotify) work excellently with speech synthesis.
