thought I would copy and paste this from the Apple website for when
you set up so you have some reference. Good luck
Learn VoiceOver gestures on iPhone
When VoiceOver is on, standard touchscreen gestures have different
effects, and additional gestures let you move around the screen and
control individual items. VoiceOver gestures include two-, three-, and
four-finger taps and swipes.
You can use different techniques to perform VoiceOver gestures. For
example, you can perform a two-finger tap using two fingers on one
hand, one finger on each hand, or your thumbs. Instead of selecting an
item and double-tapping, you can use a split-tap gesture—touch and
hold an item with one finger, then tap the screen with another finger.
Explore and speak items on the screen
To explore the screen, drag your finger over it. VoiceOver speaks the
name of each item you touch.
You can also use VoiceOver gestures to explore the screen in order,
from top to bottom and left to right.

a video, take a photo in Camera, start or stop a recording, start or
stop the stopwatch)

Dismiss an alert or return to the previous screen
Two-finger scrub (move two fingers back and forth three times quickly,
making a “z”)

activate it, touch and hold an item with one finger, then tap the
screen with another.

Action

Mute or unmute VoiceOver
Three-finger double-tap.
If both VoiceOver and Zoom are enabled, use the three-finger
triple-tap gesture.
Turn the screen curtain on or off
(When the screen curtain is on, the screen contents are active even
though the display is turned off.)
Three-finger triple-tap.
If both VoiceOver and Zoom are enabled, use the three-finger
quadruple-tap gesture.
Use a standard gesture
Double-tap and hold your finger on the screen until you hear three
rising tones, then make the gesture. When you lift your finger,
VoiceOver gestures resume.
For example, to drag a volume slider with your finger instead of
swiping up and down, select the slider, double-tap and hold, wait for
the three tones, then slide left or right.
Open the Item Chooser
Two-finger triple-tap.
To move quickly through the list of items, type a name in the search
field, swipe right or left to move through the list alphabetically, or
tap the table index to the right of the list and swipe up or down. You
can also use handwriting to select an item by writing its name.
To dismiss the Item Chooser without making a selection, double-tap.
Use the VoiceOver rotor
You can use the rotor to change VoiceOver settings, jump from one item
to the next on the screen, select special input methods such as
Braille Screen Input or Handwriting, and more. For details, see
Control VoiceOver using the rotor on iPhone.
Use these gestures to use the rotor.

...okay!
Everything crossed I can set this up successfully on Thursday.
Apple accessibility already told me that there is an on board
voiceover training present, providing guidance for using an external
keyboard as well.
Thanks everyone.

Subject: Re: limitations of an unlocked iphone?
actually nothing whatsoever.
I only recently found a keyboard that will support the phone for
more typing then anything else.
Then there was all the time spent choosing a voice that hopefully
will not stimulate my brain's dizzy centres.
still you have confirmed that wifi does not require a service
provider of any kind, which is appreciated.

Hi folks,
Am hoping to get a basic answer without needing to join another list.
I have an unlocked iPhone 5. I have no desire to get it subscribed
to a service unless absolutely needful as it will not be used for
phone calls.
However, I may not have a choice, which is why I am asking.
If I keep the phone unlocked, will I still be able to use it for
other things?
Or more correctly, what can I do with an unlocked IPhone?
thanks,
Karen
