    Hi Glj,

    Welcome to the Roku Community!

    Have you tried to enable the "Screen reader" feature, you can turn off the Screen reader by pressing the * button on your remote 4 times quickly?

    Please try doing this and see if it helps with what you're experiencing.


    Best regards,
    Mary

      I can not get it to stop telling me when I change the volume or anything else.

       

      I have pushed the * button and nothing I do will turn this darn thing off.

        Hi karenree,

        Thanks for your post. 

        We're here to help you disable the text-to-speech screen reader on your Roku device. For clarification, did you press the Star * button on your remote 4 consecutive times quickly? You may also go to Settings > Accessibility > Screen reader and toggle the switch to turn it off.

        You may also refer to this link: How to enable the text-to-speech screen reader on your Roku® streaming device.

        I hope this helps. Keep us posted on how it goes. 


        Regards,
        Nimfa
