Voice Assistant is basically just TalkBack with some additional gestures
added by Samsung.

You should be able to also when turning on the s 7 when it's brand new
tripple click the home key and that will turn on Samsungs version of
talkback.

No problem. Your meaning was clear!
If a blind person were borrowing (or receiving) it already having been

used

by a sighted person, could the blind person accessibly adapt it?

Thanks but I am embarrassed about the misspellings in the message. I am
usually better at checking. This phone can be set up totally without any
sighted assistance.

Mike, To turn on Talk back from the initial start up:
This needs to be done the very first time you power up the phone.

Press and

hold the the power button for about 7 seconds to power on. I believe the
device will give a slight vibrations when powering on.
Wait a few seconds for the set up screen to come on (you just have to

guess

on this one since of course you can’t see it.
Then place two fingers on the screen and just hold them there.
Eventually,
the device will prompt you with speech to continue to hold the
fingers on
the screen until Talk Back is enabled. Once Talk Back is enabled you
will
have speech to finish your set up.
I have done this sever times with good success.
Goo luck and this is a very popular Android phone.

Hi All,

We're looking into getting into the 21st century by getting smart
phones,
but we don't know whether to go iPhone or Android. A friend of mine has
a
Samsung Galaxy S-7 that he'll let me play around with, but would someone
please give me steps on how to turn on it's screen reading function? He
doesn't know how, & I sure as hell don't have a clue! LOL All help

will be

greatly appreciated. Thanks much.
Take care.
