Hi Jim,

Do you have the latest version of Talkback, V4.20? Do a search for Talkback on
the Play Store and if there is an Update button, update it.

All the best

Steve

Hi Steve,

Talkback is easy enough to find and launch. I'm just finding it
difficult to get icons to respond to my double taps, as is my sighted
friends. However, when Talkback is turned off then the Lenovo is very
quick and responsive.

Hi,

Then unless they have removed Talkback from the ROM, you should be able to go
into Settings, Accessibility, and turn it on. But I hate Linovo, because
they are not standard Android, they tend to be heavily customised.

All the best

Hi Steve,

I've just checked and it's Kitkat 4.4 that's running. I believe the
latest version is Lollipop 5.

Hi,

Well Kitkat is not 4.0, that is Ice Cream Sandwich. If it really is on 4.0,
then forget it. Talkback won't work nearly so well on 4.0, as it does now.

All the best

Subject: [access-uk] problems with Lenovo Yoga tablet and TalkBack

Hi List,

I've got a Lenovo Yoga 2 tablet running KitKat 4.0 or something like
that. It works great and is very fast and responsive as experienced by
my sighted friends. However, when TalkBack is launched then it is the
exact opposite and doesn't respond well to tapping and/or swiping.
Any thoughts?
