Using the voice control feature is perhaps the simplest solution. Once voice control is on and the necessary files have had time to download, you can give a command to turn screen curtain on or off. Harry > On 2 May 2020, at 12:24, Dave wrote: > >  > Hi Adam. He could try

Hello Adam. I just had a brief poke around for a solution. Unfortunately, there's no toggle in VoiceOver settings for the screen curtain. Using Siri isn't an option since it seems to think you want to control curtains connected via the home kit. The only thought which occurs to me is going
