Hi, Thanks so much for this. I wasn’t really very familiar with the screen recognition feature and this was what was causing the problem. Have switched it off now. I agree that I do like image recognition to, find it helpful and makes things more interesting. Catherine On Sun, 10 Jan 2021 at

Hi, Do you have the screen recognition turned on by any chance? This is under settings accessibility voiceover and voiceover recognition. Make sure it’s turned off for safari. I should note you can add it to the rotor and then turn it on for each app as you move, I just don’t know if it’s part of

For some reason, you can still do a google search from the search widget. It looks like it loads the exact same page of results, but doing it from the Google page sure makes VO unhappy. On Aug 23, 2010, at 12:25 PM, Allison Manzino wrote: Hi Pete, I found out that in trying to do a search
