On my iPhone 6 with IOS 10.1, Safari and VoiceOver will not let me move by character in multi line edit fields like the edit field for this post. Single line fields, like sign in fields seem to be fine. This is with the rotor set to character and flicking up and down, which only results in the end of line sound. On the mobile Facebook site with Safari, the multi line edit fields allow me to only move one character, then gets stuck, reading the contents of the edit field and the cursor position in which it's stuck with up and down flicks.

I've started noticing a trend with some app updates. I don't know if this is a voiceover issue or if this is app spacific. I'm going to give 2 examples here. Instacart for example when you add an item to the cart using your recent items tab, voiceover will say the add to cart button is dimd when it really is not. I can still add items to my cart even though voiceover states the button is dimd. Another example is the my chart app. With the latest update the schedule appointment button voiceover says it's dimd but it still works.

Hi all I have a I pad forth gen as well as a I phone 8 they are each running ios 15.5 and the i pad forth gen is 64 kbps and the i phone is also 64 kbps and is running ios 15.5. what is happening is this. on the i pad on this I pad I have a folder called soashel. I have named that folder but now when ever I swipe to different pages it says the word soashel before each page instead of saying page 1 page 2 etc. this is also happening on my I phone as well as some times it is saying it before the name of different apps. I just want it to say page 1 page 2 not soashel page 1 page 2 etc.

sometimes when I am on websites in IOS14.1 voiceover says "more content available," when I come across images. How do I access the extra content? More content is also in the rotor but swiping up and down does nothing. What do I need to do to access this?

Hello everybody. How can I disable VoiceOver from saying vertical line dot I have set the verbosity level to lowest but it still says that. I think after an update to iOS 11 it started saying vertical line. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you very much and have a great week

I am running IOS 14.8 on my iPhone SE with the apple A13 chip. After updating I turned off all the voiceover OCR and image description things in its OCR settings section. Then I turned them back on and it re-downloaded its training model data or whatever it uses for OCR. But when I launch an app, then turn on OCR, all I get is a blank screen and swiping does nothing, only thing I can see is the notification bar at the top of the screen. Turning voiceover off and on again with a tripple click of home button does nothing. Turning OCR off using the rotor make the app behave normally again.

Hello guys, I hope and wish you all well. I don't know if it's something about me, but I realized that VoiceOver has a considerably slow response in iOS 16 compared to iOS 15. I still use a Vocalizer voice, considerably more responsive than Siri voices, but I still notice a certain slowness when navigating, for example, between the folders on my home screen using gestures. I made a direct comparison with my iPhone 6s, which is still in iOS 15.7, and it managed to be considerably faster than my iPhone 11 Pro Max in iOS 16.

Hi everyone. I have encountered the following issue on my iPhone on iOS 13:
Go to settings > Accessibility > VoiceOver > Commands > All commands > VoiceOver > Label Item. The default gesture is "two finger single tap and hold". But if I do so, nothing happens. To change the label item, you have to double-tap with two finger ans hold to execute the command "label item".
Although, the problem is that some gestures were shown wrongly to the customers. That's a really serious issue I think. Can anyone confirm that behaviour?

When I call an agency, I regularly get a menu of options.
I then have to choose an option by entering a number.
Since iOS 15, VoiceOver sound is either very quiet or completely gone during a phone call.
Sometimes it is not possible to select a number at all. Very frustrating if, for example, you have a call bus
want to order.
I've been looking in the settings to see if I can set something here, but unfortunately I can't find anything.
Anyone have the same experience and possible solution?

Is anyone else finding that VoiceOver is not consistent when you raise your phone to wake it? Sometimes it announces the time, sometimes it is silent, apart from reporting the screen’s return to locked.

Hi, my phone seems to have slowed down after I updated to iOS 16.3. Is anyone experiencing similar problems pls?

Hello all.
Since upgrading to iOS6 VoiceOver gets sluggish in audio apps such as Garage Band, Korg iKaossilator, Sonos Controller and probably many others. I often end up killing the abusing app(s) when things get really, really slow. :) I was hoping this would get fixed in the latest updates to iOS6 but apparently this did not happen.
I want to file a bug against this issue and would like to give Apple as much information as possible.
Please suggest other apps you may have seen that express a similar behavior.

This just started happening when I updated my iPhone to the latest iOS. How do I control it, how do I switch so that it does or does not happen, how does this crazy thing know when I have Bluetooth headphones connected and not a Bluetooth speaker. Honestly it’s really cool and really new but I would like to know how to control it. If any of you have had this happen please let me know. If I am supposed to have this happen and everyone else has done, sorry for posting more than one topic.

Compared to the sound level for the voice itself, the sound effects are very loud. Where can I adjust the volume level for the sound effects? Thank you.

Hello, I was wondering if in the new iOS sounds, where you can enable, or disable them. Does anyone know if there is one for when you slide up from the bottom of the screen for home button? I have not been able to find one, but it seems like most of the other sounds have been thought of, even one for screen lock, which I never liked. Thanks so much.

Hello. So, today I updated to iOS 18.0.1. When I put on my AirPods, my voiceover sounds are in mono. I know for a fact, that’s when not wearing my AirPods, my phone has them in stereo. I don’t know what could be causing this, and I can’t find a fix for this. I tried resetting my AirPods, restarting my phone, and pairing them again. This did not fix the issue. Any help would be appreciated.
