Correction, to get to the top or bottom of a screen or document you touch the screen with 4 fingers in an area near your mute switch. To get to the bottom touch 4 fingers just above the home button. the pinch gesture is opposite of what you know as pinching. You start with your thumb and

To get back to the top of a list, you can touch with one finger in the status bar, then do the one finger double tap and when you then touch on the main portion of the screen it will be back at the top of a list. Example, if you have 100 apps on your phone, and you are in settings, and are at

Hi Jennifer, as richard said, touching the status bar than double tapping there quickly get you back to the top. You don't need to fool with a pinch gesture since iOS has had a text selection mode that you can have in your router. Put that in your rotor, turn to it, then you can choose by

It would help to know what app you are using. I know you know you have to be in a place where VoiceOver says editing, but even that can behave differently depending on the app. Are you truly using 10.2, not 10.3.2? Richard -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com

Hi Deidre, I assume when you say you moved the "Home icon" to the last page you mean the Home app from Apple. If so then this has very little to do with what Voiceover calls Page 1 which is called the Today screen. I do find it useful, but I did customize it to show me the stuff I want to see,

The new speaker does sound interesting. It's pricey, so it better sound a whole lot better than anything else you can get for a lot less. And for me, the Achilles' heel is still Siri. I know there's time between now and release, and they did talk about deep learning or whatever other geeky
