Amazon Fire Kids mode accessibility voice thing is sort of evil

My son plays TT RockStars for school, but unfortunately if he has a tablet with anything else on it, he'll do that instead.

We had an old iPad Air which was horrible and slow, but functional, but the screen shattered and left splinters of glass. It's probably not worth repairing, so I bought a glass-on-top cover to try to make it safe to use. Unfortunately I put the first one on upside down by mistake, covering the button, so it picked up splinters of loose glass I can't remove from it, and then shattered the spare one while peeling off the backing. Argh.

I found an old 7" Amazon Fire tablet - and after noticing we'd forgotten to cancel the Kids+ subscription for the past few years (thanks to Amazon for not pointing out that we weren't using it but continuing to pay for it, yay capitalism) - it's mostly OK. Except that TT RockStars doesn't speak the questions, which Max finds helpful to keep his attention.

I tried turning on the accessibility voice, in case this was the solution.

It... wasn't. And worse, it changed the UI so much that the thing bordered on unusable - there should at least have been some sort of idiot mode help button in the notification bar!

1. To turn off the voice - because it's soooo grating - double tap with three fingers.

2. To get into the settings to disable accessibility entirely:

From the child profile, tap the notification bar - it should highlight. (If you need to type the pin on the keyboard to get into the child profile, it's probably similar typing the parent PIN, next).

1. Double tap but hold the second tap and pull down. This should open the navigation.
2. Hereafter, tap each thing and wait until it highlights, then double tap it:
1. Note: when you double-tap the screen, you are NOT tapping the thing under your finger, you're tapping the thing that has the green rectangle highlight around it.
   
2. The settings gear
3. The parent profile
4. Each digit of the PIN
5. The enter key on the number pad
6. Hopefully you're looking at the settings screen
7. Drag down to 'Modify web browser'
8. Swipe left to right and it should scroll to the next page down
9. Tap, then doubletap accessibility
10. Tap, then doubletap Voiceview Screen Reader
11. Tap, then doubletap voiceview
12. Tap, then doubletap continue
13. Should have turned the damned thing off.

3. If you make the mistake of entering the tutorial and then 'try gestures', only to find you can't do anything to get out of 'try gestures' mode because everything you do is just printed on the screen and there's nothing saying "4 finger double tap to leave this screen"... press the power button. Or do a 4 finger double tap.
