Talkback feature on Sony Xperia Tipo


Sony xperia tipo (and tipo dual of course) comes with unique feature called talkback, which allows you to hear what's going on your phone.

When talkback is on, any event on the phone will be spoken, for example you press a button, the phone will say what button you have just press.

Talkback is a good feature for people with low visibility or even blind, so instead of using their eyes, they could enjoy smartphone through voices.

I'm actually witness a woman that's blind able to use smartphones through voice guidance just like talkback feature.

To activate talkback feature on xperia tipo, you go to "Settings", then scroll down and select "Accessibility", then click on "Talkback".



You can activate or deactivate talkback feature by turning the on/off button, and at the buttom you can click "settings" to adjust the talkback feature.

When talkback is on, your device provides spoken feedback to help blind and low-vision users. For example, it describes what you touch, select, and activate.

Talkback can collect all of the text you type, except passwords. This includes personal data such as credit card numbers. It can also collect data about your interactions with the phone.
