Voice Over And Twitter App

Good evening, Does anyone know if there is a way to prevent voice over from naming/describing the symbols/emojis while using the twitter app? Having to have the coloured hearts, flowers, hands, etc., etc. read out gets very tiresome very quickly. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Kevin, You can lock the screen with the hot spot running. I find that the easiest way to use it with my Mac is to connect the phone to the computer with a cable. Then the computer powers the phone, and you can turn off Wi-Fi on the computer to save power. I don't know for sure if you can do

You can also hold down one of the volume buttons and the side button at the same time for about a second and that will bring up the power off option or the emergency SOS button to call emergency services. If you hold the two down for about 5 seconds, I believe that will call 911. So be sure to
