Switch access: Control your device using configurable key

combinations. You can move focus to clickable items and select
them.
● 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/Lock 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.
Speak passwords: When Explore by touch is turned on, you can

enable Speak passwords to have your phone read out characters
entered in password fields.
Note: Use caution with this feature, because others near you will be
able to hear your passwords.
