How do I get rid of the robotic voice

Jump to solution

I did find the Screen Reader under settings but it's turned OFF.  Pressing the * button 4 times the message says it's enabled.  Pressing it * 4 more times still says it's enabled. But in settings Screen Reader is turned OFF.

@Cindy317,

Thanks for the post,

We appreciate you reaching out to us. We're pleased to assist.

A system restart is the least invasive reset method.

  1. Press Home home button on Roku remote on your Roku remote
  2. Scroll and select Settings
  3. Select System
  4. Select Power. If you do not see a Power submenu, skip to the next step.
  5. Select System restart

In either case, your Roku device will complete a system restart and hopefully return to normal operation after a moment.

Thanks,

Arjiemar

Thank you for the suggestion.  I found out it was the TV remote that I wasn't even using.  I've been using the ROKU remote to operate my TV so when it started announcing things, I assumed it was with the ROKU remote. Still have no idea how a non used remote turned on the voice commands but some mysteries in life are good. 😄
