Ways to Turn Off the Voice Narration on Xbox One

There are three ways to turn the narrator off on your Xbox One:

Through the power menu: This is the easiest method, but it doesn't provide any extra options.

Through the system settings menu: This method takes a little longer, but it has more options.

With voice commands: This method is also very easy, but it only works if you can use voice commands with your Xbox One.

How to Turn off the Narrator From the Power Menu

The easiest way to turn off the narrator is through the Xbox One power menu. The downside of that simplicity is that this method is also the main way people accidentally turn the feature on without realizing.

Here's how to turn off the Xbox One narrator using the power menu:

Hi MarshallLaFar

Below is a guide on how to turn narrator on/off:

Turn on Narrator on Xbox One

Narrator is a screen reader that reads text, buttons, and other elements aloud.

• If you're using a controller, press and hold the Xbox button until it vibrates, then press the Menu button . (Press them again to turn off Narrator.)
• Press the Xbox button to open the guide, and then select System > Settings > Ease of Access > Narrator to turn it on or off.
• If you're using a keyboard, press the Windows logo key + Ctrl + Enter. (Press them again to turn off Narrator.)

To use voice commands, say “Hey Cortana, turn on Narrator” or “Xbox, turn on Narrator.”

Note

Voice commands may not be available in all countries or regions.

Hi Aaron,

To turn off narrator hold the xbox button and go to narrator, it then should ask you Do you want to turn it off, select yes. If its still on after you turn it off, a quick restart should fix this.

You can also adjust the narrator settings in Settings - Ease of access - Narrator then switch off.

Or this one by SkwuirrelNutz:
"If you go to setting s and turn ease of access and turn narrator on back back ou into the game then go back to settings and turn narrator off it should fix it"
