As already answered by Satguru, this is an alternate screen reader also known as Jieshuo+. it is developped by a Chinies man named Lee singlehandedly, and it surpasses in many things compared to Talkback. Forget all other features, its responsiveness is just awsome. It's not available on playstore. But he gives continuous updates regularly via dedicated telegram group, sometimes, the app is updated 3 to 4 times in a week. it has 2 version, 1. Commentary screen reader and 2. Commentary screen reader international version without chinies language support, small in size. Whether people like it or not, it's fact that things Google could not do in about 10 or 12 or more years of Android journey of Talkback, this person could achieve it in 10 or 12 months. It's paid version does have all these things like OCR, sceen recognition, Captcha solving capability and many more features. but it's basic or free version also does many things Talkback developpers could not even think anytime. I do have it in my phone and use its free version sometimes when I am sure talkback would not assist me in the task, and more than half of the times, Jieshuo+ does not disappoint. They have their telegram group specially dedicated to Jieshuo+ or Commentary screen reader, and people from various countries do great amount of voluntary work like making it developped in different different languages etc without any monitary thing involved is just amazing. This shows the commitment, this is just an example of strong will for the work undertaken with dedication. and "Chota Muh badi baat", giants like google does have lots of things to learn from these people undoubtedly. and I can't stop from laughing when I hear hollow statements from google pertaining to accessibility for all etc. It is personal choice afterall, whether to use it or not, we know it is Chinies software, no need to say more on that, but just it's Chinies app does not disqualify it from the praise it is worthy of.
