Android TalkBack: Local Context

Douglas: Hello, my name is Douglas Walker. Today, we will check out how to use our local context menu.

Now, our local context menu is kind of hidden, and waiting to be used at all times in the background. However, when we touch or swipe to any other items, our talk back hints are gonna tell us some of the things that we're going to find within our local context menu. And, our local context menu is going to change a bit, depending upon the type of item that we happen to be working with.

I know this all sounds kind of mysterious, so why don't we just jump right in and this will begin to make more sense once we actually start using our local context menu. Now, we just so happen to have our apps list open, and, we will just touch our Google app, here in the top left hand corner of our screen.

Ed: Now that you've had a chance to learn a bit with us, we'd like to learn more about you. Your name, email address, how you heard about Hadley, and your relationship to vision loss. Learning more will give us a better understanding of how to personalize Hadley just for you, and don't worry. Everything you share with us online will be kept safe and secure. Of course if you'd prefer to talk through these questions, we're just a phone call away at 800-323-4238.

Taking these few steps saves your preferences so you can continue right where you left off and track your progress every time you log on. Plus, it connects you to the Hadley community and helps sustain our funding to keep Hadley free of charge, and last but not least, it gives you direct access to experts, like me. Now, where were we?
