Thanks a lot, Lisa! Please send any other hints on getting
started (if you can), seeing as this will be my first iPhone.
Thanks,
Ezzie

Hi ezzie,
When you get your phone, what you are going to do to get voice
over started
is to hit the "home button" 3 times quickly. The home button is
a round
button inset on the screen itself; it's the only button on the
actual
screen.
Clicking the button 3 times quickly will start voice over
talking. This is
called the "triple click home" and is different from tapping on
the screen
itself.
Hope that's clarifying!

Thank you for the warm welcome! I expect to get my new phone in
October.
So do you just tripple tap anywhere on the screen and VO will
begin to
speak? How many fingers are required to tap?
Thanks in advance!
Ezzie

Greetings! and welcome to the Ihponeland! I've had mine for
almost 2
months, thus would like to give you some tips and resources I
found useful.
First of all go to
http://www.visionaustralia.org/atpodcasts/
where you'll find especially the Iphone/Ipod tutorials which are
great!
They gave me clarification on little details and also got me to
explore and
not be afraid to learn things on my own.
Afterwards I'd recommend the Apple Vis site which also has great
info!
It's address is
http://applevis.com
Now as for activating VoiceOver, usually if the phone is right
out of the
box and not set up yet, do a triple click home button; if not, as
I did, ask
the store implyees to activate VoiceOver for you by going to
Settings;
General; Accessibility and click on VoiceOver and the phone
should start
talking!
Siri is used more as an extra feature but diesn'doesn't replace
VoiceOver.
Hope this helps and again welcome to the list! You'll learn a
lot!

hereello everyone,
My name is Ezzie Bueno and I am a college student majoring in
music
education. I've been using a Macbook Pro for almost two years
now.
Now that my upgrade is here, I've decided to take the plunge and
get
myself in gear with the all-new iPhone 5! I'm totally blind and
have never
used a Touwh Screen in my life.
How did you get started using the iPhone? What tips do you have
for me as
far as getting VO turned on, using SIRI, and getting started in
general?
Also, which apps do you all recommend once I get comfortable
with the
iPhone itself?
Thank you,
Ezzie
