Re: New iPad owner with questions

2023-03-23 Thread Anna Dresner 
Hello Wayne,

Locking the orientation isn’t a VoiceOver feature, so you can absolutely have 
it set differently on the two devices. On both, you lock the orientation in 
Control Center. The phone can only be locked in portrait, while the iPad can be 
locked in either one. Just go into the orientation you want, open Control 
Center, and lock it.

Best,
Anna

New iPad owner with questions

2023-03-22 Thread Wayne Merritt 
Hi. I bought an iPad Air 5th Generation today. I have been using VoiceOver for 
many years on the iPhone, but don't have much mileage on the iPad. I think my 
main question so far is this. I know that one's VoiceOver and other settings 
migrate between devices and iCloud. While this is good on paper, is it possible 
to make settings changes on the iPad that are different from the settings I 
have on my iPhone? An example is the screen orientation. I have it set to 
portrait on my phone, but want to experiment with landscape on the iPad with 
the larger screen. 

Kind regards,
