Exactly correct, unless a sighted person has exposure to Voiceover because they know somebody who is blind they will not know how to turn off the screen curtain. Having said that, it would not be too hard for somebody to look up this information if they really wanted it, e.g. if somebody stole an iPhone and it was one which wasn’t protected with a passcode they could most certainly figure it out. In most other situations this is a non-issue because why would somebody want to turn off your screen curtain in the first place and if you gave your iPhone to a sighted person you know so they can make a call or help you with something you can turn it off yourself, most likely you would turn off Voiceover so they can use the phone and then the screen curtain disappears anyways.

Most sighted people don't use VoiceOver. Therefore, most sighted people aren't going to know about the screen curtain or what gesture or Siri command they need to use to turn it on or off. Amen. And this is called logical thinking, I guess :) Cheers, Marcio<https://tinyurl.com/TlkTM> AKA Starboy Sent from a galaxy far, far away. -- Are you a Thunderbird user?
