I will.  Apple keeps inventing new features  Google sadly doesn’t.

I may be wrong, but I think some of the features under Voiceover Recognition 
are not available on the iPhone 8.

For those who have newer phones, definitely iPhone 11 which is what I have and 
possibly iPhone XR, you can turn image and screen recognition on or off in 
Voiceover Settings under Voiceover Recognition. If you turn it on you then get 
a list of all your apps where you can turn it on or off and you can, of course, 
add it to the rotor.

I use a VoIP phone app called 3CX which is set up to work with my business 
telephone system. This app was completely inaccessible on my old iPhone 8 and 
also on newer phones with screen recognition turned off. However, with screen 
recognition turned on the app becomes almost completely accessible, not 
perfect, but I can access recent calls, the keypad, settings and other areas. I 
therefore turned on Screen Recognition in Voiceover Settings > Voiceover 
Recognition, but then I went through my list of apps and turned it off for all 
apps except for 3CX, this way whenever I open 3CX it is on and for other apps I 
can turn it as well as image recognition on using the rotor if I want it. It's 
a fantastic new feature of iOS 14.

That is what I’m wondering about; I can’t find image recognition in voice 
recognition under voiceover;  that is why I think that maybe this is available 
in a newer iPhone than I have.

I just tested this out and apparently if you turn on Image Description in 
Voiceover Recognition this will turn it on for all apps.  The Describe Images 
option on the rotor controls its function per individual application.  If I'm 
wrong someone please correct me.


Stay safe and take care.  Mike.

If you go into Settings, Accessibility, Voiceover and VoiceOver Recognition you 
will find it there. 

 

Not sure what its relationship is with the Rotor, does the Rotor override the 
setting here?

Hi Debbie,

 

I don't think there is a setting in Accessibility / Voiceover for turning this 
on and off, at least I couldn't find it.  I believe the only way to do this is 
to add, Describe Images, to the rotor and once it's on the rotor you highlight 
it and flick up and down to turn it on and off for each app.


Stay safe and take care.  Mike.

Hi,

I have an iPhone 8 and I did add described images to the roter. However, isn’t 
there somewhere to turn this off under voiceover? I can’t seem to find it. Is 
that feature available in a newer model of the iPhone or am I just missing 
something which is highly likely?

Thanks!

Debbie
