Hi Margaret,
A 3-finger double tap mutes speech which in fact is different from turning off Voiceover. If you do a 3-finger double tap and then give the device to a sighted person they still wouldn’t know how to do anything because Voiceover is still running, you still have to double tap on items and use all the other gestures specific to Voiceover. It’s like pushing the mute button on a TV, the TV is still on, but it doesn’t make any sounds.

Just as Siri to turn on voice over and it works or do a three finger double tap this is a toggle gesture. If you do a three finger double tap it will either turn on or off voice over. I hope this helps.

I have the following questions and would appreciate help very much: Voice over was enabled for me at the store, but I have done something and disabled it. How do I get it back without sighted help? What is the ap called that one can use to type in Braille on the screen? Where can I get a sort of free manual helping with the learning process to use the phone? Many thanks.
