RE: Pinch Gesture On Apple Watch Ultra 2

2024-05-06 Thread Edward Przybylek 
Hi all,

 

I’ve played with my watch trying to get the pinch gesture to work since my 
original post.  I’ve played with several arm and hand positions such as keeping 
my arm parallel and perpendicular to the floor, using my wrist at various 
angles, trying to use different finger combinations and using different parts 
of the fingers being used to perform the pinch gesture.  I’m finally able to 
get the gesture to work about 80  to 85 percent of the time.  I use my index 
finger and thumb to form the letter “O” and then tap the very tips of those 
fingers to perform the pinch gesture.  As  I said , this works most of the 
time.  Anyone with longer fingernails may have some trouble tapping the tips of 
their fingers together.  I hope I’m explaining myself clearly but, if not , 
please reply to this post and I’ll try to do a better job.  Thank you.

 

Take care,

Ed Przybylek

Hi,

It doesn't work on my Ultra 2  either, however interestingly it does appear to 
work on my wife's series 9  with Voiceover running!

I’ve been trying to turn on pinch gestures on my Apple watch Ultra 2.  So far, 
no luck.  I called Apple accessibility support and, after half an hour, the 
representative told me she didn’t believe the feature works when using 
VoiceOver at the same time.  I thought I’d write to the list and see if this is 
the case.  Has anyone gotten this feature to work?  If so, could you please 
pass on any tips you have that might get the pinch and other gestures working 
on my watch.  As always, any help is greatly appreciated.

Pinch Gesture On Apple Watch Ultra 2

2024-04-30 Thread Edward Przybylek 
Hi all,

 

I've been trying to turn on pinch gestures on my Apple watch Ultra 2.  So
far, no luck.  I called Apple accessibility support and, after half an hour,
the representative told me she didn't believe the feature works when using
VoiceOver at the same time.  I thought I'd write to the list and see if this
is the case.  Has anyone gotten this feature to work?  If so, could you
please pass on any tips you have that might get the pinch and other gestures
working on my watch.  As always, any help is greatly appreciated.

 

Take care,

Ed Przybylek
