Are you looking for how to stop Roku from talking? Roku TV has a few features that could be the reason why you can hear your Roku narrating.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Last Saturday, one of my friends called me to ask <strong>how to stop Roku from talking<\/strong>. Every time she would run through a setting on her Roku TV, the audio guide would narrate the options to her. She was quite irked for not being able to turn off the blabber and was relieved that, finally, she could turn off the voice on Roku by accessing the Audio Guide feature on her Roku TV through my assistance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.roku.com\/intl?next=\/accessibility&amp;source=www.roku.com\">Audio Guide<\/a> and Audio Description are two features that make your Roku talk. While the features are intended to help the users, most users do not prefer having them turned on. Hence, if you have one of these features turned on on your Roku TV, you may be looking for ways to turn it off. Fortunately, both features are easy to toggle on and off.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You will learn all that you need to know about disabling the Roku voice in this article.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-why-is-my-roku-narrating-everything\"><strong>Why Is My Roku Narrating Everything?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/2.jpg\" alt=\"Why Is My Roku Narrating Everything?\" class=\"wp-image-7347\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/2.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/2-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/2-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/2-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>You might be facing a problem with narration on Roku for one of two reasons. Either you have activated the voice narrator, also known as an audio guide feature on your Smart TV, which reads the interface aloud as you navigate using your remote, or you may have enabled an accessibility feature known as &#x2018;Descriptive Audio&#x2019; while watching a movie or TV show. Descriptive audio is the audio that plays along with the visuals to describe the scene.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is practical for those with vision issues, myopia, or those who cannot read the text because of the font size to enable the features on their devices, as listening to voice narration can spare them from the horror of straining their eyes in such conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While both features are important and user-friendly, most individuals choose not to use these features. Hence, the majority of Roku users are unaware of how to turn off or on the feature on Roku TV.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How To Turn Off Narrator On Roku TV?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The viewing experience of the users is important to Roku TV manufacturers, so they built the voice narrator and descriptive audio features into the smart TV. However, if you are unaware of how to turn off the feature when it is on, this section of the article will cover you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Using The Astrix Button On The Remote Control<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/3.jpg\" alt=\"Using The Astrix Button On The Remote Control\" class=\"wp-image-7344\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/3.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/3-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/3-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/3-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are wondering why my Roku is talking to me and looking for a solution to solve the issue, then this section of the article will help you. Usually, if the asterisk button on your Roku TV remote is pressed continuously four times by accident, the voice narrator on your Roku TV gets activated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To your relief, the most common reason why the voice narrator on your Roku TV is turned on accidentally is also the easiest way to turn off the feature.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&#x2019;s how.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Step 1: <\/strong>Locate the asterisk or the star button <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"45.71428571428571\" height=\"26.848991656765456\" src=\"https:\/\/lh4.googleusercontent.com\/AuJAxmjg7oPGV221ZTIhZwrSfdLnacfYV50r1yv9XbMpkI5xrxq3c1Jl1NSgi5cgk2hJaiPWmZ5HDyHhdFXurWtK02_NfSI_sHGYzr0k-ewAEQaK772YhFowuYhoLnoTlSBDofEerNNahkzBi1PYpTgSq6IuQagDfMl642PL-g24QnV5o7ikC7d6Xg\">on your Roku TV remote.
