Go to the app switcher and then double tap on the app, but on the second tap
you hold for a few seconds. You are then in edit mode, just simply double tap
the app to be removed. from the app switcher.

In the voice utility VO+F8 you can activate sounds and this will give you an
indication when a web page has loaded. This will save you from having to use
the auto speak tor page summary read out when a web page is loaded.

Yes turn auto reading off and your voice over cursor should then appear where

yes, select the item in the doc you wish to move and then press and hold the
option key and the command key together whilst pressing the cursor key left or
right depending on where you wish to move the app to. voice over will announce
what it is moving and to where as you press the cursor keys.
in case you did not know, to activate quick nav hold the cursor keys left and
right together until you hear quick nav is on, press agains to turn it off.
quick nav saves you having to hold down the VO buttons when surfing the web etc
