First of all, if the phone is up to your ear and the speaker has not been engaged, you don't need to hear what's on the screen to end the call; you can just press the power button. Secondly, if you really must not engage the speaker by pulling the phone away from your ear and you have to enter extensions, etc., the best thing would be to use some type of earphone or headphones. I use a single bluetooth earpiece but there is plenty of variety to explore depending on your needs. Thirdly, you should be aware that at times when you are in call, the screen may show buttons for mute, keypad, etc. and you may have to double tap the keypad button to bring the keypad back up. You really don't want to be doing this while trying to maintain the phone to your ear anyway and again, an earphone szstem would be the best way to handle this.
Finally, while I don't have time to check the information and outline this now, it is possible to edit phone numbers and put in commas to allow for an apropriate pause after the number connects and then dial the extension if this is a phone number where you always have to enter the same extension number; this will also work with keypresses other than extension numbers. Googling and/or looking through the archives should get this information for you. > -- > Cheryl > I tried and tried to turn over a new leaf. > I got crumpled wads of tear-stained paper thrown in the trash! > Then God gave me a new heart and life: > His joy for my despairing tears! > And now, every day: > "This I call to mind, and therefore I have hope: > The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; > his mercies never come to an end; > they are new every morning; > great is your faithfulness." > (Lamentations 3:21-23 ESV) > > On Aug 20, 2014, at 9:01 PM, Jen Colley <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hi, > I have an iPhone 5c and use voice over. > I have had an issue recently when I needed to make a call.
