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.
