The Voice Guide feature provides users with visual disabilities to speak out about what is on the screen. Voice Guide is a built-in navigation system on LG TV that describes what is happening on the TV screen. Despite the advantage of this feature, like surfing the channels and shifting between menus, it can be a little bit annoying to receive feedback all the time from your TV. If you are annoyed with the Voice Guide, you can disable it from the Accessibility Settings.

Voice Guide vs. Voice Assistant
First things first, Voice Guide and Voice Assistant are not the same. Voice Guide is a feature for visually challenged people. Voice Assistant is a personal assistant feature to do certain tasks using voice commands. You can interact with Voice Assistant using voice commands. In Voice Guide, you will get only the feedback based on which you can navigate on the TV screen.
These are the two different ways to disable the Audio Guidance feature on your LG Smart TV. If you have any doubts or issues with the Voice Guide feature, let us know in the comments.
