What is TalkBack?
This is Google's screen reader which is built-in to many phones. It's worth getting the latest version from the market to gain the latest improvements. Some special scripts are included to improve access for some popular third-party apps. Get the Accessibility Preferences app to adjust Talkback's few available settings.
TalkBack is an app for the Android Accessibility Service to help blind and vision-impaired users use their devices more easily. This app add spoken functionality services to your device. This is a system application that was pre-installed on most devices and is updated when the accessibility service is improved.
This app only gets activated if you explicitly turn on Accessibility.
Steps to activate Accessibility:
- Go to Settings
- Select Accessibility
- Enable Accessibility checkbox

Comments and Reviews
The most HORRIBLE app in the world! Once it is enabled it takes your phone hostage and is impossible and very cumbersome to navigate your entire phone! I can't wait to get rid ogf it! It fact I will be uninstalling Microsoft defender altogether! because of it!
