Move the insertion point past the punctuation at the end of a word or sentence. Use the rotor
to switch back to character mode.
When moving the insertion point by line, VoiceOver speaks each line as you move across it.
When moving forward, the insertion point is placed at the beginning of the next line (except
when you reach the last line of a paragraph, when the insertion point is moved to the end of the
line just spoken). When moving backward, the insertion point is placed at the beginning of the
line that’s spoken.
Change typing feedback. Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver >
Typing Feedback.
Use phonetics in typing feedback. Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver >
Phonetic Feedback. Text is read character by character. VoiceOver first speaks the character, then
its phonetic equivalent—for example, “f” and then “foxtrot.”
Delete a character. Use
with either standard or touch typing techniques. VoiceOver speaks
each character as it’s deleted. If Use Pitch Change is turned on, VoiceOver speaks deleted
characters in a lower pitch.

double-tap and hold until you hear a sound indicating alternate characters have appeared. Drag
left or right to select and hear the choices. Release your finger to enter the current selection.
Change the keyboard language. Set the rotor to Language, then swipe up or down. Choose
“default language” to use the language specified in International settings. The Language rotor
item appears only if you select more than one language in Settings > General > Accessibility >
VoiceOver > Language Rotor.
