You can turn off TalkBack on your phone by following these simple steps:

  1. Open the Settings app. You can usually find it on your home screen or in the app drawer.
  2. Tap on Accessibility. This option may be located under a different category, such as "System" or "General Management," depending on your phone's operating system.
  3. Select TalkBack. You'll find it listed under the accessibility features.
  4. Toggle the TalkBack switch off. This will disable TalkBack on your phone.

Note: If you are unable to find the TalkBack settings using the above instructions, you can try searching for "TalkBack" within the Settings app.

Here are some additional tips:

  • If you're using a phone with Android, you can also turn off TalkBack by pressing the volume buttons three times in a row.
  • If you're using an iPhone, you can turn off VoiceOver by going to Settings > Accessibility > VoiceOver and toggling the switch off.

Remember, turning off TalkBack will disable all its features, including screen reading and navigation assistance.
