It did not work for us we tried that. Even the Apple support person told us it
was not showing up to him when he did the screen share and we turned off voice
over.

When this happened with me last night with the NBA app, the screen appeared
completely blank when I was exploring it with VoiceOver, but my sighted wife
said everything looked completely normal to her. In other words, the screen

Hi all,
Has anyone used Uber or Lyft for essentially running an errand. I've heard a
round-trip can be done by selecting multiple stops. Next week I need to do a
curbside drop off for our dog to the vet. I am wondering if this could be a
solution.
Thank you,

If you're in an app which has screen recognition turned on, twist the rotor to
screen recognition and flick down to turn it off. Then twist away so as not to
accidentally turn it on again.

know how there's aa list of apps in which when selected, it'll turn it on
