You; speaking in clear cut english, tapping, swiping, and talking me through this in a way I can clearly understand is appreciated. Thank you VERY much for making this process a lot easier for a tech dum dum like myself. Hehe... I was about to give up hope, but instead... because of your simple to understand video, I have a slick new feature on my phone!

Thank you so much! I've been experiencing reading compression issues since damage was done to my vestibular nerve during a recent surgery. This will be a tremendous help!

after numerous days of trying to figure this out I came across your YouTube video and all I have to say is thank you thank you thank you ever so much😂😂😂

😂 thanks for this i been waiting to use this on my S22U but never had the moment to really think of doing it. Its nice when your feeling a little lazy to read lol especially when you're tired! But always be careful on listing because you might get confused since we all zone out sometimes

The best set of instructions that worked point to point.. Thanks

[excellbrasileletronica]

Thank you very very much. My damn Samsung phone was not allowing it. Fixed.

[VanessaHape]

Very useful, thanks. I found with pdfs on my phone however, that I couldn't select portions around text that I wanted read out. It just started from the top of the page and started reading. However, in other apps I could select the portions I wanted to hear.

Many thanks for this. How can i control the speed of the speech. It sounds hurried, too hurried.

It doesn't work on my phone as it will only read the interface and not any PDF or other forms of text

[jennifersanders]

big thank yoiu.t moble didnt know how to help,

[josemanuellastra]

It doesn’t work quite well in my Huawei M5 Light tablet, it makes very large pauses when I want to read a complete Web article in the chrome Web browser, or actually in any browser, it’s very unpleasant. I’ve factory reset the tablet like 5 times but the problem persists. I’m a visually impaired person, I don’t like at all how Talkback works to read articles so How do I fix it? Quite frustrating

[surnderratti]

Thanks, is this possible to record the speech and save it

[paulinetolley]

I want to be able to speak and type. My icon has disappeared

[MichaelStoneham]

Feature isn't in my settings on Android 10/11
