Thanks, Steve.
I got an 8. So the home button worked and I just restored from my iCloud
backup. So I'm all set.
Regards,
Tom

Tom,
My daughter bought an iPhone 10, and she says that pressing the power button
three times on that unit should bring up VoiceOver. While there is no HOME
button, there is a physical location on the screen that serves as a HOME
button that will give some feedback when your finger is on it. On other
devices, one presses the HOME button three times.
This process is configurable in settings, though. One can change what three
presses of the HOME button or the POWER button on an iPhone 10 can do. I
suppose it is possible that this could be configured differently by
different carriers. Also, it is not easy to press the power button three
times in rapid succession through some of the cases. If you can't get it to
work with the case on, try it with the case removed so that you have more
direct access to the physical power button.
Best regards,
Steve Jacobson

Just press the home button 5 times very fast and wait for voice over to
start talking.

I've got a new iPhone coming tomorrow and assume Siri won't work out
of the box and the triple button press isn't on by default. Any way to
get it talking or do I have to wait for eyes?
Thanks,
Tom
