Hi Marina V., Please stand by as I search the Mixpanel knowledge base for an AI-powered answer. I normally take about 15 seconds or so. In case AI cannot answer your question, feel free to reach out to Mixpanel support at mixpanel.com/get-support.

I apologize, but the knowledge sources provided do not contain specific information about tracking accessibility features usage or getting events from users using screen readers and Bluetooth keyboards in Mixpanel. However, I can provide some general information about tracking events in Mixpanel that may be relevant: Mixpanel allows you to track custom events and properties for user interactions with your product. To track accessibility feature usage, you would need to implement custom event tracking for those specific features.According to the Quickstart guide, you can use the track method to record events on behalf of your users. You could potentially use this to track when accessibility features are activated or used.For device-specific properties, Mixpanel does automatically collect some information. As mentioned in the Default Properties documentation, properties like $manufacturer, $model, and $bluetooth_enabled are collected for some platforms. However, there's no specific mention of screen reader or Bluetooth keyboard detection.To track these specific accessibility features, you would likely need to implement custom event tracking in your application code to detect when these features are being used, and then send that data to Mixpanel using the tracking methods provided by the SDK for your platform.For more detailed guidance on implementing custom event tracking, I recommend consulting the Mixpanel documentation for the specific SDK you're using in your application.

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! đź“š
Based on the knowledge sources provided, I can partially answer your questions about tracking Bluetooth devices and identifying screen reader or keyboard usage in iOS/Android apps with Mixpanel. However, some specific details are not available in the given information.Regarding tracking which device is connected through Bluetooth: The knowledge sources don't provide specific information about tracking individual Bluetooth devices. However, Mixpanel does collect some Bluetooth-related information automatically on certain platforms. According to the Default Properties documentation, Mixpanel collects the following Bluetooth-related properties for Android: - $bluetooth_enabled: Set to true if Bluetooth is enabled, false if not.
- $bluetooth_version: Set to "none", "ble", or "classic".These properties give you some insight into the Bluetooth status of the device, but they don't provide information about specific connected devices.Regarding identifying screen reader or keyboard usage in iOS/Android apps: The knowledge sources don't contain specific information about detecting screen reader or keyboard usage. However, you could potentially implement custom event tracking for these accessibility features.To track these specific accessibility features, you would need to: 1. Implement custom detection of screen reader or keyboard usage in your iOS/Android app code.
2. Use Mixpanel's event tracking method to send this information as custom events or properties.According to the Quickstart guide, you can use the track method to record custom events. You could use this to track when accessibility features like screen readers or external keyboards are activated or used.For example, in Android, you might implement something like this (note that this is a hypothetical example and not provided in the knowledge sources): LBKS// Assuming you've already initialized the Mixpanel instance as 'mixpanel' boolean isScreenReaderEnabled = // Your code to detect screen reader boolean isExternalKeyboardConnected = // Your code to detect external keyboardLBKSmixpanel.track("Accessibility Features Used", new JSONObject() .put("screen_reader_enabled", isScreenReaderEnabled) .put("external_keyboard_connected", isExternalKeyboardConnected));LBKSRemember that the exact implementation would depend on your specific app and the Mixpanel SDK version you're using.For more detailed guidance on implementing custom event tracking for these specific accessibility features, I recommend consulting the Mixpanel documentation for the iOS or Android SDK you're using in your application.
