Hi all, Thanks for the responses. All of these are both ways of turning VO on and off, which is what I’ve been doing. I just thought that, as on the phone, there was a way to just turn speech on and off. If there’s not, I’ll just keep doing what I’ve been doing, which is triple clicking the menu button to turn VO off and back on again. Cheers, Donna
