Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for enabling screen-specific user interfacing with elements of viewable screens presented by an electronic device are disclosed. In one aspect, a method includes the actions of identifying a character sequence representing a first input that is received while displaying a viewable screen having at least one selectable viewable element. The actions further include accessing an electronic file that provides a text representation of one or more of the at least one selectable viewable element. The actions further include comparing the character sequence to the text representation. The actions further include selecting, within the viewable screen, a selectable viewable element whose text representation matches the character sequence. The actions further include triggering any action linked to the selecting the selectable viewable element.

Abstract: A method 900 includes: identifying 903, within an electronic device 100, a character sequence representing a first speech input that is received 902 while displaying a viewable screen having at least one selectable viewable element; accessing 904 a view hierarchy that provides a text representation of one or more of the at least one selectable viewable element; comparing 906 the character sequence to the text representation of each of the selectable elements associated with the viewable screen; and in response to detecting 908 a match of the character sequence with at least one text representation, a processor of the electronic device 100 (i) selecting 910, within the viewable screen, a corresponding selectable viewable element whose text representation matches the character sequence and (ii) triggering 918 any action linked to selecting the corresponding selectable viewable element.
