Tony Richard and double, Brilliant! So I opened up the magnifier app, and discovered that it said "detection mode" off. So I just tried and turned it on, don't know why it got turned off by me! Anyway, it now seems to work! Happy happy happy! Between us all we got there! The power of community…

Sandy, I'm now in exploring mode at the moment, ☺.
So have you tried 'point and speak' where you point your finger
at what you want described and keep flicking right if desired.
This app is amazing for us!

Tony,
Excellent! I'm delighted to hear this so it is just a me
problem and I will have to find a solution perhaps another 10
restarts might make a difference…
Enjoy playing with it and don't mess with the Settings if it
works leave it alone!
All the best, Sandy and Z

Sandy, just to follow up, I got Live Recognition, and
thanks o Richard, and when I did the gesture Live
recognition was activated.
I haven't got around to checking it out further but the
gesture is definitly qworking for me.
Inciddenttally, and it's probably just me! I find the
tofour fingers difficult to do especially the little
finger but I guess practice makes perfect as they say.
I prsume your iOS is all up-to-date and your phone is
fairly recent.

Richard,
Yes I have restarted my phone a couple of times, but
I am delighted to hear it's working for you, this must
be a me problem which is always fixable!
Thanks for responding, Sandy NZ

Sandy, I also have the 16 pro, and just updated to
26.5.2 and the four finger triple tap works fine. It
is called live recognition.
Have you rebooted your phone?

Sandy, tsounds like that
that was a very useful gesture indeed which
I never got around to using.
Anyway looks like one for Apple
acccessibility as you appeared to have tried
everything to resolve this matter.
Not sure how to contact them from
Ireland but one of those AI gbots could
assist you here in that one.
Good luck,
Tony In Dublin Ireland

hello the list,
Something I use
regularly is the object recogniser I think
it's called that, it's probably still
under the measuring app, but in iOS you
can always pull it up by performing a four
finger triple Tap gesture. all of a sudden
it stopped working for me. I'm running the
latest iOS on a 16 pro. I can go into
settings for VoiceOver and I have checked
that it is ticked to work but it doesn't…
i've checked all my voice gestures and it
is there and ticked. in case you are
thinking it's a matter of dexterity, I'd
only have I use this for at least a few
years now, but also a quadruple four
finger Tap works for me and double four
finger Tap works for me I have no problem
with the gesture for some reason nothing
happens when I perform it.
In case other
people don't use this feature of iOS, it
brings up a menu of seems to be recognise
such as seen doors text et cetera, and I
find it immensely useful and quick! so
rather than launching app I just performed
this gesture look what I'm looking for and
move on by performing the gesture again
which toggle it off. s so, has anyone else
tried the four finger triple Tap recently?
and I should mention, I have
reset/restarted my phone a few times now
since I noticed his behaviour, and it's
made no difference…
so, any
help/advice would be very gratefully
received!
All the best,
from a mild and barmy Island, Sandy NZ
