Whenever I play a video on Facebook, the TalkBack continuously speaks and does not shows the option to revind, pause and forward any video properly. Along with tha5.t, it does not read the name of a particular video properly whenever I scroll on Facebook to play it. These are the most common accessibility bugs. Kindly investigate and resolve these issues.

I hugely support accessibility for people with different abilities. In fact part of my job is managing production of accessible format e-books for readers with compromised vision. I take it seriously. But this app came and activated itself without asking and it's a huge nuisance. It keeps interrupting things I want to do with my phone and other apps. The worst thing is, the little icon is right next to the square button so it's really easy to tap by mistake. Every time I managed to suppress this app and get my necessary apps working, I manage to tap the Accessibility icon by accident and I get back into the same mess again. I've wasted so much time trying not to use these Accessible functions I don't need, which interfere with the normal functioning of my phone! Please, Google, change Accessibility so people who don't need it can make it switch it off.

Yeah, I guess a lot of people would find this Android feature (its not an app imho) useful, I fall with those that don't quite so! Despite having the Talkback feature turned off, I still get many random voice activated calls happening when I mistakenly hold the power button down and utter anything remotely resembling any name on my contact list. I am going to assume its more to do with my Huawei device than anything else. Or maybe I should switch it off using Google Assistant. idk!
