TalkBack: TalkBack speaks descriptions of items you touch or activate on your phone, to
help blind and low-vision users. When TalkBack is turned on, you may need to use a double-
tap to select items, because a single tap is used to trigger TalkBack.
 Dark screen: When TalkBack is on, you can enable Dark screen to keep your phone's
screen turned off at all times. When Dark screen is enabled, double-press the Power key to
turn it on or off while using your phone.

Rapid key input: When TalkBack is on, you can enable Rapid key input, to allow you to
release your finger to enter a selection, instead of double-tapping it. By default, when you
have TalkBack turned on, you must double-tap items on the screen to select them. If you turn
on Rapid key input, you can tap and release your finger to select and item instead of double-
tapping.
