Use the VoiceOver rotor

Use the rotor to choose what happens when you swipe up or down with VoiceOver turned on.

Operate the rotor. Rotate two ngers on the iPad screen around a point between them.

Choose your rotor options. Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver > Rotor, then

select the options you want to be available in the rotor.

The available rotor positions and their eects depend on what you’re doing. For example, if

you’re reading an email, you can use the rotor to switch between hearing text spoken word-by-

word or character-by-character when you swipe up or down. If you’re browsing a webpage, you

can set the rotor to speak all the text (either word-by-word or character-by-character), or to jump

from one item to another of a certain type, such as headers or links.

When you use an Apple Wireless Keyboard to control VoiceOver, the rotor lets you adjust settings

such as volume, speech rate, use of pitch or phonetics, typing echo, and reading of punctuation.

See Use VoiceOver with an Apple Wireless Keyboard on page 112 .

Use the onscreen keyboard

When you activate an editable text eld, the onscreen keyboard appears (unless you have an

Apple Wireless Keyboard attached).

Activate a text eld. Select the text eld, then double-tap. The insertion point and the onscreen

keyboard appear.

Enter text. Type characters using the onscreen keyboard:

•

Standard typing: Select a key on the keyboard by swiping left or right, then double-tap to

enter the character. Or move your nger around the keyboard to select a key and, while

continuing to touch the key with one nger, tap the screen with another nger. VoiceOver

speaks the key when it’s selected, and again when the character is entered.

•

Touch typing: Touch a key on the keyboard to select it, then lift your nger to enter the

character. If you touch the wrong key, slide your nger to the key you want. VoiceOver

speaks the character for each key as you touch it, but doesn’t enter a character until you lift

your nger.

•

Choose standard or touch typing: With VoiceOver turned on and a key selected on the

keyboard, use the rotor to select Typing Mode, then swipe up or down.

Move the insertion point. Swipe up or down to move the insertion point forward or backward in

the text. Use the rotor to choose whether you want to move the insertion point by character, by

word, or by line.

VoiceOver makes a sound when the insertion point moves, and speaks the character, word, or

line that the insertion point moves across. When moving forward by words, the insertion point

is placed at the end of each word, before the space or punctuation that follows. When moving

backward, the insertion point is placed at the end of the preceding word, before the space or

punctuation that follows it.
