Here’s a summary of key VoiceOver gestures:
Navigating and Reading
 Tap: Speak item.
 Flick right or left: Select the next or previous item.
 Flick up or down: Depends on the Rotor Control setting. See “Rotor Control” on
page 234.
 Two-finger tap: Stop speaking the current item.
 Two-finger flick up: Read all from the top of the screen.
 Two-finger flick down: Read all from the current position.
 Two-finger “scrub”: Move two fingers back and forth three times quickly (making a
“z”) to dismiss an alert or go back to the previous screen.
 Three-finger flick up or down: Scroll one page at a time.
 Three-finger flick right or left: Go to the next or previous page (such as the Home
screen, Stocks, or Safari).
 Three-finger tap: Speak the scroll status (which page or rows are visible).
 Four-finger tap at top of screen: Select the first item on the page.
 Four-finger tap at bottom of screen: Select the last item on the page.
 Four-finger flick up: Select the first element on the screen.

Activating
 Double-tap: Activate the selected item.
 Triple-tap: Double-tap an item.
 Split-tap: An alternative to selecting an item and double-tapping is to touch an item
with one finger, then tap the screen with another to activate an item.
 Touch an item with one finger, tap the screen with another finger (“split-tapping”):
Activate the item.
 Double-tap and hold (1 second) + standard gesture: Use a standard gesture.
The double-tap and hold gesture tells iPhone to interpret the subsequent gesture as
standard. For example, you can double-tap and hold, then without lifting your finger,
drag your finger to slide a switch.
 Two-finger double-tap: Answer or end a call. Play or pause in iPod, YouTube, Voice
Memos, or Photos. Take a photo (Camera). Start or pause recording in Camera or
Voice Memos. Start or stop the stopwatch.
