Subject: Re: four finger triple Tap not working!

 

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.

 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,

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
