That double tapping really throws sighted people. My husband is really good with computers and stuff, but that double tapping - well, he thinks it makes me have to work so hard to use my phone. He said if it ever got stolen, the thief would not be able to use my phone. My cousin says that people who steel phones know more than he thinks, and they'd have Voice Over off in a minute!

It blacks out the screen by setting entire screen to black, this uses battery power. You may save battery a good bit by saying Hey Siri make screen darkest. If someone sighted wants to use the phone, say hey Siri make screen brightest as well as hey Siri turn voiceover off. When they are finished, turn voiceover on with hey Siri turn voiceover on or do three-finger double tap. You can darken & Brighten the screen in 25% increments with hey Siri make screen darker or brighter. Turning off voiceover lets the phone respond to single taaps, not double with voiceover on. Sighted people never get used to double tapping. Brian K. Lingard VE3YI, Ab2JI, B.. A., C. T. M.
