Hi guys!
Those of you who has been around for a while might remember me telling about my mentally challenged son.
Well, I love that chap to bits but he is a hand full from time to time...
I bought him an iPod and now he has been fiddeling around with it and activated some sort of blind help thingy.
Every single thing I/he touches on the screen it reads out loud what we see on the screen.
I've done uncountable atempts to get rid of the darn voice but it keeps on telling me off.
I'm not talking about Siri but a help option for blind people.
How do I get rid of it?

Hi tranquil

Good seeing you around!
It sounds like the iPod's Accessibility settings were activated. Looking at my iPad, you should find it in Settings -General -Accessibility, and uncheck whatever is On there.

Thank you mate!
Deactivate "Voice Over" did the trick.
It drove me crazy and my son even more...
