Ever had a problem with how to turn off talkback. We all use mobile in our daily life and also use many functions/services of the mobile in day-to-day life. There is one such service which we know as talkback. It is an accessibility service, and blind or partially blind people mainly use this service.
By default, this service is present on the mobile’s power button, or users can also add this service on shortcuts options. Whatever the task will perform on the device’s screen, it will be audible to the user. Thus the people who cannot see it properly can also interact with their devices more conveniently.
It is not that useful for normal users but very beneficial for visually impaired people. Whenever this service is turned on, it becomes very hectic to turn it off. Have you ever turned on talkback in your mobile, or have it been turned on by mistake, and you don’t know how to turn it off; then it may definitely bother you. This post will tell you how to stop talkback if it is turned on by mistake.
The Procedure of How to turn off talkback
First, let me tell you how to turn on this service if anyone wants to turn it on. After this, I will tell you the procedure of how to turn off talkback.
To turn on talkback, open the settings option on your device; after that, you will see an option called Accessibility if you scroll down a bit. When you tap on this, many options will appear in front of you. Now select talkback from these options, and when you tap on talkback, it will ask you for some permissions.
Here, talkback will ask you for permission to control your device; as soon as you grant that permission, it will be activated, and after this, it will show you the talkback’s user guide.
It will finish the entire guide in 5 simple steps; after that, your talkback becomes fully functional. The notable thing here is that you can run your device with a single tap in normal mode, but in talkback, you have to double-tap to run your device no matter what service you open.
