iOS and iPadOS

Hello everyone,
The subject line says it all here. Is it possible to set up a command that would find the first heading on a page, and at the same time switch to headings in the rotor? I find myself wanting to navigate by heading more often than not, but with so many options in the rotor, it takes me a bit to find that option in the rotor. Either a way to do what I've suggested, or bypass the rotor entirely and just navigate between headings.

Hi all. i'll put this here, because i think this is the right spot. If it isn't i apologize. If someone should choose to move this topic, or wishes i do so please let me know and i'll be happy to do that. I plugged my Ipad two into my Mac, to sync it and also chargeit. When i click on the lock screen, it will only go from the time, to the unlock button. No 67% charging message that my iPhone four has. Anyone know what's going on? Latest updates to the upad, so I don't know myself or unless I've just not realized this happens?

I am trying to assist one of my learners who is using an iPad with keyboard and Voiceover. She has updated to iOS 13.4 and is now experiencing problems with her Mail app. When opening an Email, every now and again, it brings up a context menu with the options to reply, reply all, forward etc. This is really causing her a problem because most of the time she only wants to read the message. I've gone into Accessibility, Touch, and turned off 3D and Haptic touch but this doesn't seem to work in the Mail app.

hi all
I am having issue with my iPad running the latest iPadOS.
The issue is an annoying lag when content in other languages is detected. I enable auto language switching and I have both English and Arabic as TTS.
I tried several combination of TTSs but it seems the lag does exist no matter what TTS is used.
So now when reading through Facebook posts where names are in one language and the post content in another language, I am getting a very annoying lag. It is to the extent it is even boring to use or read with multilingual content.

The settings app on iPadOS has been misbehaving for two years and Apple support seems disinterested in trying to fix it. They've blamed my device even though the same problem has happened with four different devices. Then they blamed my install even though several full restores hasn't fixed it. I even set it up as a new device and still have the same problem.

I recently bought myself an iPad 9th Generation, and have been hearing off/on how the sighted take advantage of the Split-screen view. So I've been wondering if this is accessible for us VoiceOver users? And if so, what gesture is there to quickly switch between the default "Full-screen View" to the "Split Screen"? Thanks in advance for tiss on this matter.

I have an iPhone 10 question
With my iPhone 7 I would periodically clear the ram/memory from the main screen I would hold the power button till the shutdown screen appeared then hold the home Butten till it made a noise and returned the focus to the main screen of apps. I haven’t been able to figure out how to do this with my iPhone 10. Does anyone have experience with this?

I am using an iPhone 11. I make sure that the race to speak is switched off, but when the phone is locked and I just touch the screen with one finger it speaks. Is there someway of stopping this, and where?

Hello all:
After i got my new Iphone 12 mini, i set up Face ID more than 4 times, because each time, my phone can not dedict me all the time, do not know if this is a 12 mini issue or what, but i thought that it's my fault, but til now, face ID is not ok with me all the time, so are there any guidence on how to set up Face ID in a professional way? and what about the alternative setup? can i use it with mask? i tried but with no luck, any help? because i thought that entering Passcode is very unsecure for blinds,
Thanks in advance

So I'm getting a 12 mini tomorrow, and it dawned on me, I have no idea how to operate the new phones without a home button. Like how does one turn voice over on straight out of the box and so forth.
Might someone point me in the right direction to an article or guide on how the phones work with voiceover without the home button and with face recognition?
I'm familiar with the iOS system, but my basic understanding is haptics are used to replace the home button, but coming from an iPhone 7I have no clue how that works.
Any help greatly appreciated.

I have an iPhone 12. After a recent reset when the screen is locked and I touch it it wakes up asking for the passcode. I can’t remember where this feature is switched off. Looked all through the settings and cannot find it, anybody help?

I changed from AT and T, to Spectrum mobile and purchased a new 12. Voice over and I thought the icloud were going ok. As of now, no signal, she assured me i have service, I can't even see my phone number in my facetime settings. I want to clean up the older phone because i'll sell it. I tried to download alex but it won't switch over even though I thought it was selected. Not goot at face ID or the home gesture but this is four hours old. Help please.

This has happened before, I had to do without having notifications shown on the locked screen. It is happening again. Settings/ accessibility/ VoiceOver/ Verbosity Do nothing is selected for Notifications when screen is locked but does it work? No, all notifications set to show on locked screen are read aloud by VO even in silent mode. I had some very embarrassing situations at work. Can someone validate this? I had to reset all settings the day before this started happening thanks to the lag in response after updating to IOS 18.1.1

Hello, I recently bought the iPhone 13 and downloaded ios15. Since the download the only notification working is the ring tone. I contacted Apple help who told me there is a bug in ios15. I downloaded an update but the problem persists so I went to my local apple store. They advised me to do a hard reset which I did but the problem persists. Also my Watch stopped at the time of the reset. Any thoughts?

Good afternoon, all! I have an iPhone 13 pro, and especially today, the battery has been draining faster than usual and it's been getting much warmer than normal as well. I keep screen curtain on most of the time, and I haven't really been doing anything different since iOS 18, so I'm a bit baffled as to what might be going on. Especially in the past couple of days, I've mostly used Dystopia, messages, mail and Replika. I've played a bit of Word Voyance and dice world too, but I don't remember either of those causing issues in the past.

Since iOS 17 Voiceover on my iPhone 13 has too many bugs, they still aren’t fixed in iOS 18 and honestly I’m so annoyed about the stability worsening and the lack of optimisation that iOS is currently facing, regarding accessibility.
Voiceover gets muted for short periods of time: When I’m doing something, Voiceover loses speech for a moment, and then comes back. Although it happens very occasionally, I find it very annoying and frustrating.
Voiceover gets extremely slow while browsing the Internet, mainly if there’s a photo or a video that is playing.

Hi,
I just got my 1 tb iPhone 14 pro today, and really like it, although I keep going to the app switcher instead of home, it's going to take practice, lol. Anyway, I was able to set up face ID, although it was tricky. After I feel haptic feedback that face id unlocked my phone successfully, why do I still have to do the home gesture? When I used touch id with my SE 2020, after Touch ID unlocked it, I didn't have to press home I don't think. Unless I would accidentally press it when I was triggering touch ID? Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.
