hai dear friend!!! this information I got from internet, please read it!!!!
20 Quick Tips to get you Started with your First iPhone!!!!!
Number one rule: your iPhone with VoiceOver running will operate
differently to standard iPhone gestures. In addition, VoiceOver will
speak some items as "real" words when in reality on the screen they may
be just symbols. So just take this in to account when getting assistance
from sighted friends and family, and listen to what VoiceOver is saying.
1. Turning iPhone on: hold down power button (top right) for 2 seconds
and release. Takes about 15 seconds for the unlock screen to appear.
VoiceOver announces time. Screen will lock after 10 seconds if the
screen is not touched.
2. Unlocking the iPhone from the unlock screen: press the Power button
(top right or the Home button bottom middle). VoiceOver announces
the time. Drag 1 finger up from the Home button (bottom middle) just
a little. VoiceOver announces "Slide to unlock" and "Slide or double
tap" (2nd message is the VoiceOver hint). 1 finger double tap
anywhere on the screen to unlock (you don't need to drag your
finger). If screen not touched for 15 seconds, screen will lock.
When screen unlocked, you are at the Home screen with rows of apps,
and the Status menu at the top.
3. Basic VoiceOver navigation of the Main Home screen: 1 finger drag
around screen to here what is under your finger or 1 finger flick
left or right to move item by item left or right around the screen.
1 finger double tap to activate the item you wish to use. 1 finger
flick left or right will only move you between the items on the main
screen, it will not access the Status menu (see next point), but
dragging 1 finger will. The first row of icons on the main Home
screen are: Messages, Calendar, Photos, and Camera, with further
rows of icons (apps) below this. At the bottom (of all Home
screens), you have 4 apps (icons): Phone, Mail, Safari (web
browser), and Music.
4. Accessing Status menu: locate the Speaker grill just below the top
edge of the iPhone, and drag 1 finger down just a little. .
VoiceOver will announce an item on the Status menu, followed by the
announcement "Status bar item" and "Swipe down with three fingers to
reveal the Notification centre" (second message is the VoiceOver
hint). Once in the Status menu, you can 1 finger flick left or right
to move left or right to the items in the Status menu: eg signal
strength, time, battery status etc. 1 finger drag or touch anywhere
on the screen to take VoiceOver out of the Status menu.
5. Practising VoiceOver gestures: VoiceOver itself has a practise mode
(much like keyboard practise on desktop screen readers) where you
can practise all the gestures with out them actually doing anything
besides speaking their function: To do this: Settings, General,
Accessibility, VoiceOver, VoiceOver Practise, and try out a few of
the gestures in this document. Press the Home button (bottom middle)
to return to the Main Home screen. Remember, you can navigate to all
of these items by 1 finger drag or flick left or right to locate
each item, and then a 1 finger double tap to select an item. Tip:
touching the screen with 4 fingers at the top will jump the
voiceOver focus to the top most item on the screen which in the
Setting screens is the Back button to go back a screen, 1 finger
double tap as usual to activate this if you wish to go back a
screen, and of course, 4 finger touch at the bottom of the screen
moves the VoiceOver focus to the last item on the screen.
6. Adjusting the volume of VoiceOver: VoiceOver volume is adjusted by
using the Volume up and Volume down buttons on the left hand side of
the iPhone just below the top left hand edge and below the
sleep/wake switch whilst VoiceOver is talking. Two finger flick up
will start VoiceOver talking from the top of the screen, whilst
talking, press the Volume up or Volume down buttons to control the
volume of VoiceOver. When finished, a two finger touch on the screen
will stop VoiceOver talking (which can be used any time to silence
VoiceOver).
7. Silencing the iPhone: To silence the iPhone, locate the silence/wake
switch on the top left edge of the iPhone just below the top.
Flicking the switch down towards the back of the iPhone will silence
the iPhone (you will feel the iPhone vibrate). Rather than ringing,
the iPhone will now vibrate. Flicking the switch up towards the
front face of the iPhone, will put it back in normal operation. When
in Silent mode, you will not hear any sounds that VoiceOver makes
when your touching the the screen (but it will keep talking).
8. Answering and hanging up a call: 2 finger double tap anywhere on the
screen will answer a call. 2 finger double tap anywhere on the
screen whilst on a call, will hang up the call. When not answering
or hanging up a call, the two finger double tap will start and stop
music playing etc if you have been previously been listening. When
you are on a call, taking the iPhone away from your ear will turn
the loud speaker on (hands-free mode), and putting the iPhone back
to your ear will put it back in private mode so that only you can
hear the caller.
9. Dialling a call: to dial a call, activate the Phone app (bottom left
of the Home screen), VoiceOver announces "Blank phone number", drag
your finger around the screen or 1 finger flick left or right)
through the standard layout phone keypad, when you find the number
you want to use, 1 finger double tap to put that number in to the
phone number field, when you have finished putting in all numbers,
locate the Call button below the 0, and 1 finger double tap to make
your call. tip: the Delete button to delete the last number (or all
numbers that you have put in to the dialling field) is located to
the right of the Call button, 1 finger double tap the Delete button
to start deleting numbers. If you don't get VoiceOver saying "Blank
phone number", locate the Keyboard item tab on the bottom of the
screen, and one finger double tap to activate it (this will put the
dialling keypad on the screen). You can also use Siri to dial a
phone number or a contact (see next item). To exit the Phone app,
just press the Home button (bottom middle).
10. Using touch typing mode: If you would like to speed things up a bit
when using the dial keypad: rather than 1 finger double tap on a
number, just take your finger off the number to put the number in to
the phone dialling field): for this, you need to use the rotor. This
is rotating or turning two fingers on the screen (like a dial). Each
time you turn the dial, you go to a new option on the rotor. When
you dial to typing, a 1 finger flick up or down will change between
standard and touch typing. You must be on the phone number field for
typing mode to appear in the rotor. This also applies to the
on-screen QWERTY keyboard when you come to using iMessages/text
messages. The rotor also lets you move by such items as character,
word etc. e.g. to spell out one of the icons (apps) on the home
screen, two finger dial around to character, and then 1 finger flick
up or down will move left or right through the current icon (app)
name. Remember, 1 finger left or right moves to the previous or next
item, 1 finger flick up or down moves by the current rotor setting
or select something like the desired typing mode.
11. Using Siri (if activated): hold down the Home button (bottom middle)
until you hear an ascending double beep, speak an instruction such
as "What is the time", and Siri after a descending double beep will
give you the time. When Siri is on the screen, two finger double tap
will activate Siri with the ascending double beep, speak your
instruction, wait for the descending double beep or two finger
double tap, and Siri will speak the result of your instruction. To
dismiss Siri, press the Home button (bottom middle). If you want to
dial a number using Siri, at the instruction point, just say "dial
1300 847 466" and Siri will dial this number (Vision Australia).
Alternatively, if Vision Australia is in your contacts, you could
just say "call Vision Australia" and Siri would also call Vision
Australia.
12. Moving between screens: The iPhone comes with two screens of apps.
To move to the second screen of apps from the Main Home screen, do a
three finger flick left to scroll the screen to the right. To move
back to the first screen of apps, do a three finger flick right to
scroll the screen to the left or press the Home button (bottom
middle). If you press the Home button whilst on the first screen of
apps, you will be taken to the Spotlight search screen, just press
the Home button to get back to the Main Home screen.
13. Activating an app (like the Phone app above): to activate or use an
app, 1 finger drag or flick left or right with 1 finger to locate
the app (such as Weather), when located 1 finger double tap anywhere
on screen to use or activate that app. Once in the app, just like
the Home screen, 1 finger drag around screen to explore the app or
use the 1 finger flick left or right gesture to also explore he app.
To exit or come out of an app, just press the Home button (bottom
middle).
14. Plugging in headphones: the headphone jack on the iPhone 5 is on the
bottom edge of the iPhone towards the left. You can adjust the
volume of VoiceOver independently of the general speaker volume by
using the Volume up or Volume down controls as above.
15. iPhone battery notification: When your iPhone is at either 20 or 10
percent charge, it will pop up a message alerting you that it is
getting low. Plug the iPhone in to recharge. If the iPhone is fully
discharged, after you have plugged in to charge, when it wakes up,
you will hear two quick vibrations as it powers up. The lighting
cable to charge the iPhone is plugged in to the small lightning
connector at the bottom edge of the iPhone in the middle.
16. Triple click: to allow a non VoiceOver user to use your iPhone, you
need to enable Triple click. When this is activated, you can press
the Home button (bottom middle) three times to turn VoiceOver on or
off when ever you need to. This is done by activating Settings,
General, Accessibility, Triple click, and then selecting VoiceOver.
Once on, press the Home button (bottom middle) to return to the Main
Home screen. Remember, you can navigate to all of these items by 1
finger drag or flick left or right to locate each item, and then a 1
finger double tap to select an item. Tip: touching the screen with 4
fingers at the top will jump the voiceOver focus to the top most
item on the screen which in the Setting screens is the Back button
to go back a screen, 1 finger double tap as usual to activate this
if you wish to go back a screen, and of course, 4 finger touch at
the bottom of the screen moves the VoiceOver focus to the last item
on the screen.
17. Gesture to mute VoiceOver and turn on screen privacy mode (screen
curtain): Three finger tap twice on the screen will turn VoiceOver
speech off or on (this is not the same as Triple click where
VoiceOver is completely turned off), mentioned hear just as a
warning, and avoid if possible. Screen curtain is useful as it
blanks the screen so that no person can see what is on your screen.
To turn this on or off, three finger triple tap: remember, three
finger double tap was the speech off or on gesture.
18. Locking the iPhone: Press the Power button (top right) to lock the
iPhone. The iPhone will automatically lock after 1 minute if the
screen is not being touched.
19. Adjusting the auto lock from 1 minute: as you might come to
appreciate, having the screen lock every 1 minute particularly when
your learning is a pest. To adjust the time for auto lock: Settings,
General, Auto-Lock, and then select 1 (default), 2, 3, 4, 5 or
Never. Press the Home button (bottom middle) to return to the main
Home screen. Remember, you can navigate to all of these items by 1
finger drag or flick left or right to locate each item, and then a 1
finger double tap to select an item. Tip: touching the screen with 4
fingers at the top will jump the voiceOver focus to the top most
item on the screen which in the Setting screens is the Back button
to go back a screen, 1 finger double tap as usual to activate this
if you wish to go back a screen, and of course, 4 finger touch at
the bottom of the screen moves the VoiceOver focus to the last item
on the screen.
20. Turning off the iPhone (not recommended): Hold the Power button (top
right) in for two seconds. VoiceOver will announce "Slide to power
off" and "slide or double tap" (second message is the VoiceOver
hint). 1 finger double tap anywhere on the screen to Power off. If
screen not touched for 30 seconds, screen will lock. Otherwise, drag
1 finger up from Home button (bottom middle) to find the Cancel
button, and then 1 finger double tap anywhere on screen to activate
the Cancel button. The Power off control is towards the top of the
screen if you wish to find it by dragging one finger.
