Re: Mega discovery in 9.3

No, you don't have to use the rotor for this one. That's the thing. Sometimes I have been able to capture text that is not actually showing in a textbox, so I think it's useful! Just listen to a little text and then to the three finger quadruple tap. Go to an editbox, perhaps in Notepad, and

What I do is when my phone is in portrait orientation, I put 4 fingers on the screen vertically and then swipe to the right or left. This has worked for me every time so far, that is when I remember that I'm doing a 4 finger and not a 3 finger swipe, grin. I have noticed a small delay between when

Re: Mega discovery in 9.3

For those who are having trouble with the four finger swipe, try this. Make sure you have at least two apps open and are in one of those apps. Lay the phone on the table and turn it in landscape orientation with a long side toward you. Place four fingers on the edge of the screen away from you

Joney, What do you remember about it? Was it a four finger swipe and did Tim Cook say that it only works on the 6S or 6S plus? I know a few sighted users of the iPhone and one of their biggest gripes is not having a way to move from one open app to another very quickly other than the back

That method of copying text has been around for a while. I don't remember off hand when it came in, but it is not new in 9.3. The text selection on the rotor is new in the iOS 9 cycle, which when available is also quite handy. Richard (Sent from my iPhone 5S) > On Mar 23, 2016, at 5:09 PM,

I haven’t updated yet to try the four finger swipe but I heard this is also available to non voice Over users. I can’t find that anywhere on the internet. I know lots of people who would love this feature on their iPhone who does not use voice over. I’d be surprised to know that voice Over

Dear listers You’re probably all going to come back and tell me this has been in iOS forever but I’ve just discovered that, on my 6S at least, swiping left or right with four fingers switches between running apps. I know this has worked on an iPad Air 2 for a while but wasn’t aware it was
