My phone keeps telling me "the folder is open,.. is closed" every time I open/close. Disable?

All the sudden my phone keeps shouting out that "folder is open/folder is closed" every time I open/close it. I can't find in settings anywhere to disable this feature. Help, it's annoying!

Thanks,

Accessibility - talkback iirc.

Did you install a different status bar or something? o_O

If talkback is off, then it's most likely due to an app you installed that is turned on in accessibility settings. Liteflow and Popup Notifier are two that cause that issue but other apps may cause it as well. I uninstalled any apps that required accessability access.

Omega status bar does also, but you can turn talkback back off.

If you don't want to uninstall one of the third party apps or turn off talkback, two other options are available. You can either use a launcher like Nova and the problem doesn't exist for folders created there. Or use another "folder" type app such as CircleLauncher Light to create folders to put apps into.
