    You didn’t mention how you turn it off. This would be helpful to know when you turn the feature on by accident, the reason I even knew it was there

      Sorry and thanks for pointing it out.
      I have updated the same in the article. To exit Read aloud, all you have to do is to click on the Close ‘X‘ icon available on the Read Aloud bar on the upper right corner.
