Instructor: Today we're going to check out
the Android Select to Speak feature.
Select to Speak will take the text you've selected
on the screen, and read it out loud.
This is different from the Android screen reader, TalkBack.
If we set up TalkBack, it's always on
and reading information whenever we use the phone.
But Select to Speak reads only the text we've selected.
To find out more about Talkback
check out our Listen with Talkback series.
If you don't see Select to Speak
in your accessibility settings,
go to the Play Store to download the latest version
of Android Accessibility Suite.
For more information on how to do this,
check out the resources
by scrolling down below this workshop.
And one more thing before we get started,
if you'd like to select a different language or voice
for all the Android features that read text out loud,
see the resources for steps
on how to choose different settings.
-: Now that you've had a chance to learn a bit with us,
we'd like to learn more about you.
Your name, email address, how you heard about Hadley
and your relationship to vision loss.
Learning more will give us a better understanding
of how to personalize Hadley just for you.
And don't worry, everything you share
with us online will be kept safe and secure.
Of course, if you'd prefer to talk through these questions,
we're just a phone call away at 800-323-4238.
Taking these few steps saves your preferences
so you can continue right where you left off
and track your progress every time you log on.
Plus, it connects you to the Hadley community,
and helps sustain our funding to keep Hadley free of charge.
And last but not least,
it gives you direct access to experts like me.
Now, where were we?
