Mainstream smartphones can now be used to implement efficient speech-based and multimodal interfaces. The current status and continued development of mobile technologies opens up for possibilities of interface design for smartphones that were unattainable only a few years ago. Better and more intuitive multimodal interfaces for smartphones can provide access to information and services on the Internet through mobile devices, thus enabling users with different abilities to access this information at any place and at any time. In this paper we present our current work in the area of multimodal interfaces on smartphones. We have implemented a multimodal framework, and has used it as a foundation for development of a prototype which have been used in a user test. There are two main contributions: 1) How we have implemented W3C's multimodal interaction framework on smartphones running the Android OS, and 2) the results from user tests and interviews with blind and visually impaired users.
