Turn on TalkBack

You can turn on TalkBack when you turn on your Android device for the very first time. You can also turn on TalkBack at any time after you’ve begun using your device.

Once you turn on TalkBack, spoken feedback starts immediately. As you navigate your device, TalkBack describes your actions and alerts you about notifications and other information.

Android 8.0 Oreo Updates:

TalkBack now includes a great tutorial offering users multiple lessons as soon as they activate TalkBack. The TalkBack tutorial is available under Settings > Accessibility > TalkBack.

Option 1: Turn on TalkBack when you first turn on your device

When you first turn on your Android device, you can enable TalkBack from the initial setup screen.

If possible, keep headphones handy so that you can plug them in when it’s time to enter any passwords, such as your Wi-Fi password. By default, key echo is only turned on if headphones are plugged into your device. You can change this setting later in your Android device settings.

Press and hold two fingers on the setup screen. When your device recognizes this gesture, TalkBack is enabled and a tutorial begins.

Option 2: Turn on TalkBack later, after initial setup

The steps below require sighted assistance.

To turn on TalkBack, follow these steps:

1. Open Settings app.
2. Navigate to Settings > Accessibility (Samsung devices: Settings > Accessibility > Vision).
3. Select TalkBack and slide the TalkBack switch to the ON position (Samsung devices: Voice Assistant).
4. The confirmation screen displays a list of permissions that allow TalkBack to provide useful spoken feedback. To confirm that you allow these actions and to begin using TalkBack, touch OK.

Accessibility shortcut

You can turn on an accessibility shortcut that will let you turn on TalkBack at any time without using sight. To turn on and use this shortcut, follow these steps:

1. In Settings > Accessibility, select Accessibility shortcut.
2. Set the switch to the ON position.
3. Now you can turn TalkBack on or off any time by following these steps:
1. Press and hold the power button until you hear a sound or feel a vibration.
2. Release the power button.
3. Touch and hold two fingers until you hear audio confirmation (about 5 seconds).

Android 8.0 Oreo Updates:

New Way to Turn on Talk Back

1. Press both volume keys for 3 seconds.
2. If TalkBack doesn’t turn on right away, press both volume keys again for 3 seconds.

Notes:

The first time you try the shortcut, you might need to confirm setup in a confirmation dialog.

If the steps above don’t work, follow the steps below:

• Open your device’s Settings app .
• Open Accessibility, then Accessibility shortcut.
• At the top, turn on Accessibility shortcut.

• Optional: Change whether the shortcut works from the lock screen.

Use the accessibility shortcut

• Press both volume keys for 3 seconds.

Unlock your device

There are two ways to unlock your device once TalkBack is turned on:

• Two-finger swipe up from the bottom of the lock screen. If you’ve set a passcode for unlocking your device, you’re taken to the pin entry screen for entering your passcode.
• Explore by touch to find the Unlock button at the bottom middle of the screen, then double-tap.

Explore by touch in TalkBack

Basic touch exploration

To explore by touch, slowly drag one finger around the screen. TalkBack announces the icons, buttons, and other items as you drag your finger over them. When the focus reaches an item you’d like to select, double-tap anywhere on the screen to select the focused item.

Linear navigation

To explore your screen one item at a time, swipe left or right to move through the items in sequence.

Text editing

Type text with the virtual keyboard

When you enter a text editing field, a virtual keyboard appears on the bottom of the screen. You can explore this keyboard by touch just as you would other screens, but the activation works differently. (Note: If you’ve installed a keyboard other than the default Android keyboard, you might have a different experience.)

To type a letter:

1. Slide your finger over the keyboard until you hear the character you’d like to type.
2. Lift your finger to type the focused key.

Review text that you’ve typed

To review text in an input field character by character, press the volume keys.

• To move to the previous character, press volume up.
• To move to the next character, press volume down.

Use your Home screen with TalkBack

Your Home screen is the screen that’s displayed when you first turn on or unlock your device. You can get to the Home screen at any time by swiping up then left in an L-shaped gesture.

Here are some tips for navigating your Home screen with TalkBack:

• To move between items on the Home screen, swipe left or right. TalkBack announces where your focus is, then you can double-tap to select.
• If your device has more than one Home screen, you can move between Home screens with a two-finger swipe left or right. TalkBack announces what screen you’re on, such as “Home screen 1 of 3.”

The Home screen typically has the following elements:

• Status bar: Here you can find basic status information, such as notifications, the status of your battery, and connections to Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or your mobile network. Note that if your focus is on the status bar, you can’t use the usual swipe gesture to move to the next item. To move focus out of the status bar, touch another part of the screen.
• Search bar: Some Android devices automatically include a search bar on the Home screen. Here you can search the web without needing to open a separate app. If your device doesn’t include the search bar automatically, you can add it as a widget (refer to the Widgets section below).
• Notifications: The status bar at the top of the screen includes notifications. To open the notifications, two-finger swipe down from the top of the screen. To close the notification shade, use a two-finger swipe from bottom to top.
• Apps: Apps are small programs that perform specific tasks, such as check the weather, listen to music, send email, or read books. Apps are opened via icons on your screen. For example, the Gmail icon on your home screen opens the Gmail app. To discover what apps are on your Home screen, simply move your finger over the screen. To open an app once it has focus, double-tap the screen. To explore all apps on your device, locate the icon called “Apps” and double-tap. You’re likely to have more than one screenful of apps, and you can move between screens with a two-finger left or right swipe. TalkBack will announce what page you’re on, such as “Page 1 of 3.” To add an app to your Home screen, touch the app once to give it focus, then double-tap and hold to place it on the Home screen.
• Folders: Folders are collections of apps. For example, a Google Play folder might hold a collection of Google Play apps, such as Play Music, Play Books, and Play Movies. Folder icons can appear on your Home screen just like app icons. You can open the folder, then explore the app icons inside the folder by moving your finger over the screen.
• Widgets: Your Home screen might also have widgets. Widgets are shortcuts to let you get information or perform tasks extra quickly. For example, the Calendar widget displays your calendar on your Home screen so that you can read your calendar events without any extra steps. To add a new widget, touch and hold two fingers on the Home screen. When you hear “Home screen one of one,” you’re on the screen where you can add widgets. Near the bottom of the screen, locate the “Widgets” button, then double-tap to select. Swipe right or left to move your focus through the widgets, then two finger swipe left to move to the next page. To add a widget, double-tap it while it has focus.

Use TalkBack gestures

TalkBack gestures let you navigate quickly on your Android device.

There are three types of gestures in TalkBack: basic gestures, back-and-forth gestures, and angle gestures. For all gestures, use a single motion, a steady speed, and even finger pressure.

Basic gestures

Back-and-forth gestures

Angle gestures

These gestures are two-part swipes at a right angle. For example, the default gesture for going to the Home screen is to swipe up then left at a sharp 90-degree angle.

Two-finger gestures

All TalkBack gestures use one finger. As long as you only use one finger on the screen, your touch or gesture is only interpreted by TalkBack.

When you use two or more fingers, your touch or gesture goes straight to the application, rather than to TalkBack. For example, on most pages you can usually scroll by slowly dragging one finger. With TalkBack on, you can scroll by dragging two fingers.

In some applications, you can zoom by putting two fingers on the screen and pinching them together or pulling them apart. These gestures work normally with TalkBack on, since they use two fingers.

Customize TalkBack gestures

For the one-finger gestures listed above, you can keep the default gestures or assign new actions to the gestures.

To reassign actions to gestures:

1. Open your device’s Settings app
2. Select Accessibility TalkBack Settings Gestures
3. Select the gesture to which you want to assign a new action
4. Select the action that you want to assign to the gesture. Along with the actions listed in the tables above, you can assign the following actions to gestures:
• Open Quick Settings
• Read from top
• Read from next item
• Show actions

Android 8.0 Oreo Updates:
