You don't know what the rotor is? You haven't discovered the real power of 
Voiceover on the iPhone, then.

 e aside from not being able to type fast which will come with practice, but 
I just can't seem to get the rotor down.

I honestly have no idea what gesture you are describing.

However, the iPhone has a bazillion accessibility settings and is perfectly
