Keep in mind that VoiceOver employs a different set of gestures from the conventional ones to manage your iPhone. To interact with an object, for example, you must double-tap it. A single tap will only choose an app, link, or menu button. And, once you’ve activated VoiceOver, you must use this new set of motions. There is a learning curve, so spend some time practicing before diving in.
Fortunately, Apple gives an option on your iPhone to practice the movements. When you enable VoiceOver, a new option called VoiceOver Practice will appear just beneath the toggle. To begin, tap it and then double-tap the screen. VoiceOver will describe what you’re doing and what each precise gesture does while you’re practicing. When you’re finished, select Done and then double-tap to exit.
