I have an A53. How do I turn off the voice that reads Google searches out loud? I keep reading on the internet that you have to turn this off in Search Settings, but there ARE no Search Settings in my menu, or as an option within my Settings. I've even tried switching Google to the desktop view, as some sites have suggested, but still no luck.

Please help, it's driving me crazy!

Open Google > Click on the Top Left > Click on Top Right > Click on Settings >  Click on "Spoken Results" and Toggle it OFF.

I did find Voice settings in another menu, but I already turned that off and it's still reading Google results to me. Screenshot_20230301_095823_Google.jpg

Try this: Go to Settings > Apps & Search for "Google".

Click on the 3 Dot Menu Top Right & Click on "Uninstall All Updates" and Reboot. 

Update Google from the Play Store & Test.

Figured it out! I had to go to search settings, which is in the left menu of Google, not the right. And you can only view the spoken answer option if you're in desktop view. Thank you for trying to help!
