Yes. And the choices are, default, slow, and slowest. It's obvious that default will require the fastest finger pressing. So, if your a might slow on triple click home, you may wish to try the slow or slowest speeds. HTH Alan Sent from my iPad Air On Mar 12, 2014, at 10:18 AM, Woody

Another thing is that some of us don't use Siri. Yes, Siri is great, not questioning that, but I don't use it since I have not had very much success with Siri. My voice is of a lower pitch and I tend to speak quieter. I do have a hearing loss. My father-in-law also has one and doesn't use Siri. He

Wayne, You have just given me a rather good idea! Have you ever tried talking to Seery using the keyboard, that is, qwerty or Braille? I think, at a pinch, it may be possible! But, and this is more likely, it wouldn't be too difficult for Siri to be adapted for it. hm, The little grey

If one is in noisy environments, or does not have internet access, Siri doesn't work very well, or at all. In these situations, it would be best to have home click speed set at the level one is comfortable with. Note: when setting slow or slowest, it will take longer for apps to return to home
