I have an iPad Air 2. I like the idea of what Apple did with the mail in OS10, but the execution is weird. I miss the two-finger swipe up for reading. Is it possible that it is gone because of the way the messages are threaded? Also, When I open a message it will start reading, but stop when it gets to a break. Then I have to find the beginning of the message and do a two-finger swipe down. Reading mail on my iPad is definitely not comfortable and takes more time.
Also, a lot of times when I open a thread focus goes to the last message in the thread instead of the first. For instance, if a thread has 12 messages, I will hear message "12 of 12. Instead of "1 of 12." So I either have to swipe back through the messages to get to the top or go to the status bar and do a two-finger double tap. Again more time consumption. Yes, I do need to send a note to Apple Accessibility. -----Original Message----- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Kimber Gardner Sent: Tuesday, November 01, 2016 3:29 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: IOS10 bug report, voice over loses focus while reading email (iPad only); Follow-up: 651292328 I've reported this iOS10 bug with every beta release.
