OK, yes and no, and Jonathan had this covered. This will work if you turn off 
voice over but do not lock the screen. The pages in Kindle are turned. However, 
if you lock the screen, Jonathan’s warning does apply. Kindle stops at the end 
of the current page. I wonder how this works with the BARD reader and others? 
I’ll have to play more today after I get my new iPhone 6 which I am about to go 
do. I’m looking forward to that.

Jonathan. Thanks for this. One note. I can get this feature to work in Kindle 
as well. What I do is to do a three finger double tap to silence Voiceover, and 
the speek screen does turn the page in the Kindle app.

Wow Jonathan, what a terrific find. Thanks so much for sharing. As you 
mentioned in your audio, I knew the feature existed but totally ignored it 
thinking it was of no value to voice over users. Good man for making folks 
aware.

 

 

 

Best regards,

Hi Keith, you could try signing in if you have an Audioboom account, there 
seems to be either a change of policy or a bug somewhere because people not 
signed in appear not to be able to play it. Here also is a direct link to the 
MP3.

Subject: Audio Demo of the iOS 8 Speak Screen Feature

 

Hi everyone, a client of mine is a student who uses iBooks a lot. He was 
getting frustrated with not having a method to listen to iBooks without locking 
the screen and without notifications interrupting the book. After I showed him 
how this was possible using the speak screen feature, he suggested I do an 
audio presentation about this for others who didn't know about this iOS 8 
benefit. A lot of VoiceOver users think that Speak Screen has no benefits for 
them, but it's a great feature. Here's my demo.
