RE: A few questions about my new iPhone 6

[kliphzkorner]

Don’t know about the hand writing thing.  But as for the folders, just move the 
apps outside of the folder, and the folder will go away.  As for the voices, 
this especially true with alex, you have to toggle voice over off, then back 
on.  This should fix that issue.

 

Frustrated with your Mac, I-device, or AppleTV?  New user and want quick 
efficient answers?  Or maybe you know apple products and want to contribute?  
Then come join a list where questions are always answered, and we are always 
patient with you.

Subject: A few questions about my new iPhone 6

 

Here are my questions...

 

Voices: I downloaded both the VO enhanced voice and the Alex voice, and then I 
swiped down and tapped activate, but neither one is starting. Is there 
something else I need to do?

 

Handwriting: I know this isn't a new feature, but I never used it in iOS 7 so 
its new to me.

I added it to the rotor, but it says lower case when I start it...Is there a 
way to be able to write with caps too?

Is there a way to delete a character (other than leaving handwriting mode and 
hitting the delete key on the keyboard)?

Is there a way to write numbers, punctuation or math symbols like + and -?

 

Also, a question about folders... rather basic I know, but I haven't really 
created any since I got my first iPhone 3 years ago so I don't remember.

In moving some apps around on the home screen, I have inadvertently created 
some folders I didn't intend to create, and I would like to undo their 
creation. How do you delete a folder? I don't want to delete the apps inside 
the folder, just eliminate the folder itself so that the apps are not inside 
one.

 

Thanks,

Sarah

Re: A few questions about my new iPhone 6

[Alex Hall]

I don't recall all the gestures in Handwriting, but I know AppleVis.com 
 has a guide on the feature. I seem to recall that a 
two-finger swipe left is delete, right is new line, and three gingers 
left/right move between input types (upper/lower case/numbers). I could easily 
be wrong, though.

I think there's a little bit of a bug left with switching voices. Sometimes you 
have to restart VO to make the switch happen.

Re: A few questions about my new iPhone 6

[Wayne Merritt]

With handwriting: you swipe up/down with 3 fingers to switch between
lowercase, uppercase, numbers and punctuation. Swipe left with two
fingers to delete. There is currently a bug when you rodar to
handwriting, where you have to write a letter in lowercase and erase
it before you can switch to uppercase. I prefer writing in uppercase
if possible though I can do lowercase letters too. Not sure if there
is a handwriting option for symbols. Perhaps you can contact Apple
Accessibility and suggest that it be added:
accessibil...@apple.com

Good luck and welcome to the iPhone 6,
Wayne

Punctuation is already an option, but I don't know if it does symbols like math 
signs.
