After enabling Talkback and clicking one of the elements view in my app, the announcement is reciting:

The description that I included, pauses, then it recites: "double tap to activate".

I used Accessibility delegate from the example that I found here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/39480983/5544859

But it's only replacing the last word for me instead of the whole sentence.

For example, it's saying: Bla Bla bla. (pauses), then double tap to "custom string"

I would like to replace the whole sentence.

This phrase is coming from TalkBack and is not configurable by design. TalkBack is trying to provide a consistent user experience across all apps.

    I love how the person working on this in Google gets downvoted... classic StackOverflow... Thanks for all your hard work Phil! – Benjamin Gruenbaum Dec 18 '18 at 13:45

    he's downvoted because he's making an assumption that other developers won't have a use-case to NOT hear "double tap to". Developers want freedom. Here's one such use-case: There's a list of images, which can be selected. Selecting an image again has no use - is a wasted click. Now talkback tells the user "double tap to activate"... yeah, sure it's still clickable so why not ... and nothing happens when clicked. – Someone Somewhere Sep 15 '20 at 02:13
