Yes, this is now the default setting. It is for those with disabilities who
require switch access for accessing their iOS devices. Unlike you, if Bluetooth
is accidentally switched off, they cannot get it turned back on without
assistance. It is far easier for you to turn Bluetooth off again.

Heard of this Switch Control and sounds very fascinating. I don't think
we as VO users can use it though. It's designed for severely motor
impaired users who need special ways to access an iOS device, a switch
device being one of them. Obviously these devices require bluetooth so
this needs to
I would imagine this is also great for deaf-blind users who access and iOS
device solely through a Braille display.
Thanks,

Actually, switch control and VO can work together. You would not wish to do so,
however, because switch access is inherently rather slow.

Well, I turn on my Bluetooth display about 90% of the time, so I didn't even
notice. That is a great point about the switch devices. It makes me wonder
about how often sighted folks think about turning VO on and off with
triple-click-home. Icertainly don't see signs of Apple flagging on
Ar I see. See I was messing about and VO told us that switch control
button is dimmed.

Switch control cannot be activated until a Bluetooth switch device has been
paired with the iOS device. Switch control causes a scanning box to move from
one item to the next on the screen. When the correct item is highlighted, the
user taps the switch which activates the highlighted item. When
