Hey Petrus, Thanks for this,
I’d never read all the gestures so this is a good list, From: [email protected] <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Petrus Tuerlings Sent: Tuesday, 19 November 2019 1:55 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: limitations of an unlocked iphone? thought I would copy and paste this from the Apple website for when you set up so you have some reference. Good luck Learn VoiceOver gestures on iPhone When VoiceOver is on, standard touchscreen gestures have different effects, and additional gestures let you move around the screen and control individual items. VoiceOver gestures include two-, three-, and four-finger taps and swipes. You can use different techniques to perform VoiceOver gestures. For example, you can perform a two-finger tap using two fingers on one hand, one finger on each hand, or your thumbs. Instead of selecting an item and double-tapping, you can use a split-tap gesture—touch and hold an item with one finger, then tap the screen with another finger. Explore and speak items on the screen To explore the screen, drag your finger over it. VoiceOver speaks the name of each item you touch. You can also use VoiceOver gestures to explore the screen in order, from top to bottom and left to right. Action VoiceOver gesture to perform action Select and speak an item Tap or touch the item Select the next item Swipe right Select the previous item Swipe left Select the first item on the screen Four-finger tap near the top of the screen Select the last item on the screen Four-finger tap near the bottom of the screen Speak the entire screen from the top Two-finger swipe up Speak the entire screen from the selected item Two-finger swipe down Pause or continue speaking Two-finger tap Speak additional information, such as the position within a list or whether text is selected Three-finger tap Scroll up, down, left, and right Use VoiceOver gestures to move to another page.

To dismiss the Item Chooser without making a selection, double-tap. Use the VoiceOver rotor You can use the rotor to change VoiceOver settings, jump from one item to the next on the screen, select special input methods such as Braille Screen Input or Handwriting, and more. For details, see Control VoiceOver using the rotor on iPhone<https://support.apple.com/en-nz/guide/iphone/control-voiceover-using-the-rotor-iph3e2e3a6d/13.0/ios/13.0>.

Everything crossed I can set this up successfully on Thursday. Apple accessibility already told me that there is an on board voiceover training present, providing guidance for using an external keyboard as well. Thanks everyone.

I only recently found a keyboard that will support the phone for more typing then anything else. Then there was all the time spent choosing a voice that hopefully will not stimulate my brain's dizzy centres. still you have confirmed that wifi does not require a service provider of any kind, which is appreciated.

I have no desire to get it subscribed to a service unless absolutely needful as it will not be used for phone calls. However, I may not have a choice, which is why I am asking. If I keep the phone unlocked, will I still be able to use it for other things? Or more correctly, what can I do with an unlocked IPhone? thanks, Karen -- The following information is important for all members of the Mac Visionaries list.
