The Start of Takbeer for Eid al-Fitr

Question
Is it correct that the Takbeer for Eid al-Fitr begins from the sighting of Shawwal throughout the days of Eid?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: The Takbir (saying 'Allahu Akbar') for Eid al-Fitr is not obligatory but recommended for those who go to the Eid al-Fitr prayer, and it should be said quietly on the way. And God knows best.
