Learning VoiceOver gestures
When VoiceOver is turned on, the standard touchscreen gestures have dierent eects. These
and some additional gestures let you move around the screen and control individual items.
VoiceOver gestures include two- and three-nger gestures to tap or ick. For best results when
using two- and three-nger gestures, relax and let your ngers touch the screen with some
space between them.
You can use dierent techniques to enter VoiceOver gestures. For example, you can enter a
two-nger tap using two ngers from one hand, or one nger from each hand. You can also use
your thumbs. Many nd the “split-tap” gesture especially eective: instead of selecting an item
and double-tapping, you can touch and hold an item with one nger, then tap the screen with
another nger. Try dierent techniques to discover which works best for you.
If your gestures don’t work, try quicker movements, especially for double-tapping and icking
gestures. To ick, try quickly brushing the screen with your nger or ngers. When VoiceOver
is turned on, the VoiceOver Practice button appears, which gives you a chance to practice
VoiceOver gestures before proceeding.
Practice VoiceOver gestures: Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver, then tap
VoiceOver Practice. When you nish practicing, tap Done. If you don’t see the VoiceOver Practice
button, make sure VoiceOver is turned on.
Here’s a summary of key VoiceOver gestures:
Navigate and read
Tap: Speak the item.
Swipe right or left: Select the next or previous item.
Swipe up or down: Depends on the Rotor Control setting. See Using the VoiceOver rotor
control on page 110 .
Two-nger tap: Stop speaking the current item.
Two-nger swipe up: Read all from the top of the screen.
Two-nger swipe down: Read all from the current position.
Two-nger “scrub”: Move two ngers back and forth three times quickly (making a “z”) to
dismiss an alert or go back to the previous screen.
Three-nger swipe up or down: Scroll one page at a time.
Three-nger swipe right or left: Go to the next or previous page (such as the Home screen,
Stocks, or Safari).
Three-nger tap: Speak additional information, such as position within a list or whether text
is selected.
Four-nger tap at top of screen: Select the rst item on the page.
Four-nger tap at bottom of screen: Select the last item on the page.
Activate
Double-tap: Activate the selected item.
Triple-tap: Double-tap an item.
Split-tap: As an alternative to selecting an item and double-tapping to activate it, touch an
item with one nger, and then tap the screen with another.
Double-tap and hold (1 second) + standard gesture: Use a standard gesture. The double-tap and
hold gesture tells iPod touch to interpret the next gesture as standard. For example, you can
double-tap and hold, and then without lifting your nger, drag your nger to slide a switch.
