Hey all! This might sound very weird but if anyone has experienced this and knows how to turn it off let me know! So when i either join a meeting or host a meeting, zoom will announce out loud who joins the meeting and it also will announce if i happen to go to lets say google chrome and browse something while on the chat, if someone puts something into zooom chat, it will out loud tell me and everyone else on the meeting who sent the chat and what it says, lol HELP!!!

That is accessibility features for the blind.

First make sure you have the latest OS version and the latest Zoom version.

Sign in to the client and go to settings > accessibility and uncheck all the screen reader features.

Also be sure that you are not running an OS screen reader.
