Re: i need some twitter help
Hi Rose, the gesture you need is a four-finger single tap. If you're toggling speech off, then that gesture is a three-finger double tap, so it could be that you need to spread your fingers a little further apart in order for the device to detect all four fingers.

RE: i need some twitter help
I have a native Twitter app question. I read several, then go way and when I come back I am where I left off, if it is a day or so I wish to see what I missed but cannot figure out the way to go back to the row 1 position without swiping forever getting out a very few rows at a time. This drives me crazy, makes me not want to use the iPhone to do anything with it. A supposed four-finger swipe at the top of the screen does not go to the top of the list, not for me, it may turn off speech although I am not tapping anything, it may move a few rows but it takes me several swipes to get where I wanted to be, then assuming I had not read down to where I was the day before, getting there is another slow process. I just don't want to take forever to see the newest stuff. They keep releasing updates but nothing seems to address my complaint.

Exactly, it's a very powerful feature of the official Twitter client.
