Re: bt keyboards and voiceover

[Dave Clement]

Hi,  This sounds like a nuisance change I have encountered with IOS 26 and using an external bluetooth keyboard. The "single letter navigation" (VO+Q) feature of QuickNav is no longer automatically turned off/on  when you go into and leave edit mode on a text field.   I use this feature all the time when working with any formatted document or email or web page. Like the "find" (VO+F) and "repeat find" (VO+G) keyboard commands, it is invaluable when reading.  Now, I must remember to turn Single Letter Navigation off manually when editing or anything I type in the edit field is treated as a SLN command rather than accepted as text to be entered. I have reported this to Apple but I doubt they will change it back unless lots of us keyboard users complain.  If you use Single Letter Navigation, this might be your problem.
