CallOut Popups displayed for specific lists in SharePoint 2013

I was asked this question to turn-on CallOut Popups for Announcements list where popups where going to get display the description of the field.

I researched why the Callouts does not appear on the Announcements list as I thought they get displayed for all of them by default but clearly this is not the case.

By default, CallOuts are displayed for certain types of lists and Libraries. I found the list here at Working with CallOut Popups in SharePoint 2013 post from LearningSharePoint.com

CallOut Popups are displayed for following Lists & Libraries -

• Document Library
• Assert Library
• Images Library
• Pages Library
• Task Lists

Lists that do not display CallOut Popups are -

• Custom Lists
• Announcements Lists
• Calendar List
• Discussions List
