If you're changing roter settings then IOS is interpreting your touches,
swipes and taps as flicks up and down. I'm not sure if it's been
mentioned or not, but you might want to check out the VoiceOver practice
area. by going into Settings -> General -> Accessibility -> VoiceOver
and double tap on the VoiceOver practice button.
The keyboard is the same in every application, but if IOS knows you're
entering an email address, you will see a few extra keys on the keyboard
down around the space bar, like the at symbol and the period.

Ah, the beauty of the rotor again! Only thing is that when I am swiping

Utilities folder the former user must have created. Voice memos,
calculator, compass and contacts were in there. I’m not even sure what
app I opened except after awhile I seemed to be in an edit field and
later when I was trying to close everything and app switcher wasn’t
saying anything was open, I swear I was still in an edit field and it
appeared as if I was in Safari. I swiped up with 3 fingers even though
vo was not giving me any feedback and finally got out of the edit field
and closed whatever I had inadvertently opened. Anyway, no matter which
apps search field I was in, I found the letters easily. This leads me to
ask if the keyboard is easier to use in some applications than others,
or might I be approaching the possibility of actually being able to find
the letters I want? I even saw that I could flick and run through the
letters, vo spoke the shift key and more numbers etc. *

*Subject:*Re: shortcut hints
That is a hint. Hints are spoken about a second after whatever you
touch, if a hint is present. You don't need to wait for the hint before
you keep moving, though.
To disable hints, go to Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver,
and double tap the "speak hints, on" switch button to turn it off. This
will disable all hints, though, which I don't recommend for new users or
for anyone if a major upgrade has just been installed. You can miss
messages that tell you what some button or other control does, and hints
for even basic things can serve as a reminder on what to do if you forget.
Your other option is to put Hints in your rotor. This way, you can rotor
to Hints and flick up or down to turn them on or off, letting you enable
them when you need to. From VoiceOver's settings, find Rotor and double
tap. Find Hints, double tap so VO says it is selected, and you're done.
