[Trainer-Talk] Turn on Voice Assist on Android

[Nimer Jaber]

Hello,

This depends on whether or not you are at the set-up screen, or where you
are when trying to do this, whether you set up the device with
accessibility enabled, or whether someone has set it up first and enabled
the accessibility shortcut, etc. Typically though, a long-press on the
volume keys (both up and down) will turn on Talkback. On a Samsung device,
there is a second shortcut which may or may not be enabled, depending on
the above factors, which is the volume up and power button press.

Thanks.
