Is your Hisense TV dictating whatever options and apps you are accessing all of a sudden? It’s because the Talkback option is enabled by someone around you or because of the recent software update of Hisense TV. It is a useful feature for visually challenged users and won’t be necessary for normal users. It even feels annoying after a certain time. Thus, you have to turn off this voice guide from the Settings menu to enjoy normal Hisense TV accessibility as always. This article will help do it on various models of Hisense TV rapidly.
