How to Turn Off Voice Over on Disney Plus

The Disney Plus online service came online in 2019, and with this you can watch movies and shows in the Disney, Pixar, Star Wars, National Geographic, and Marvel collections. Further, for vision impaired and blind users, many of these shows have a voice over audio track. So in that track, an announcer tells what’s happening on the screen as the show plays.  You can hear this voice over by turning it on in the Disney Plus app. But many users say that they enabled the Disney voice over when they don’t want it.  Then they don’t know how to shut it down.  So in this piece, we show you how to turn off the voice over feature on Disney Plus, as follows.
