Dear Bothersome Sandy, Good point. My basic list of gestures is rapidly becoming an encyclopedia, which is great! So, to save on list traffic, I will refer folks to my web site for updated copies of the list of gestures. I am sure once people look at the lists there, there will be others to update. Check the date at the bottom of the page to know how recently things were updated. Website: www.turner42.com<http://www.turner42.com>
Keep being bothersome, it helps, grin.

You of course have to have a couple apps open. As Sandy said, keep the fingers fairly close together. So, line up the four fingers along the edge of the screen say with your index near the dock and your little finger near the status bar, or at least oriented that way.

Or do you four finger swipe from top to bottom/bottom to top? I can’t get it to work anymore so it’s driving me nuts, and that ain’t no long trip!

Plus, it's a bit slow to register the next app. but it does work and I've been using it ever since it was an available gesture. keep up the good work Richard!

How come on my 5S it's working great? The trick is how you place your four finger onscreen: kind of squished together. Good luck!

On my 5S, I got it to work a couple times. On a system I can’t discuss, I have not been able to get it to work. I’m going to hold off on this one until I am sure I can make it work and describe it fairly briefly. I noticed that the four finger swipe left and right seems to work on the iPhone 6 and later. It does not work on my 5S. I will move that out of the iPad section with that caveat. Thanks for helping get this list as complete as possible.

I think you haven't mentioned this one: and I am not sure if I have it exactly right, but I do use it very often: with the rotor said two words, flick down once to the end of a targeted word, then double tap and hold, you get a list of edit functions, sometimes immediately to the left of the cursor and sometimes at the very bottom right of the screen, this seems to vary, one of which being "look up". double tap that and the dictionary opens. you will get a list of dictionary definitions, including other languages, if you have those enabled. not sure how you would describe this in a quick and Zappy form… but it is a key and, I suspect, underused function of iOS. thanks for compiling this list, Sandy sent from the dark side of the moon On 30 Jun 2017, at 20:09, Richard Turner <richardturne...@outlook.com<mailto:richardturne...@outlook.com>> wrote: VoiceOver Gestures Navigate and read • Select and speak the item: Touch with one finger. • Select the next or previous item: Swipe right or left with one finger. • Select an item on the rotor: Swipe up or down with one finger. Depends on the rotor setting. * Also used to access various options on apps, Email messages, etc. Anywhere VoiceOver says "Actions available." • Using the Rotor: Place two fingers on the screen like you were going to turn a knob, hold them against the screen and twist left or right Select the next or previous rotor item. Examples of items on the rotor are: speech rate, character, word, line, heading. You can add other items to the rotor in the VoiceOver settings. • Read all from the top of the screen: Two-finger swipe up. • Read all from the current position: Two-finger swipe down. • Stop or resume speaking: Two-finger touch. • To dismiss an alert or go back to the previous screen: Two-finger scrub: Move two fingers rapidly in a small circle or slide two fingers back and forth three times quickly (making a “z”) • Speak Screen: Touch the status bar with one finger and swipe down with two fingers; only works if Speak Screen is turned on in settings, general, accessibility, speech. VO will continue reading even if the screen is locked. • Scroll one page up or down at a time: Three-finger swipe up or down. • Three-finger swipe right or left. For example): Go to the next or previous page (on the Home screen. • Open Notification Center: touch the status bar and swipe down with three fingers. • Open Control Panel: Touch status bar and swipe up with three fingers. • Open Spotlight Search: Touch on the home screen below the status bar and above the dock and swipe down with three fingers. • Speak additional information, such as position within a list or whether text is selected: Three-finger tap. • Copy last thing spoken by VoiceOver to the clipboard: three-finger quadruple tap. • Select the first item on the page: Four-finger tap at top of screen. • Select the last item on the page: Four-finger tap at bottom of screen. Activate • Activate the selected item: Double-tap with one finger. • Alternative way to activate an item: Split-tap. Touch an item with one finger, then tap the screen with another, while keeping the first finger on the screen. • When a non-VoiceOver user needs to Double-tap an item: VO users need to Triple-tap with one finger. • Use a standard gesture: Double-tap and hold (1 second) + standard gesture. The double-tap and hold gesture tells iPhone to interpret the next gesture as standard. For example, you can double-tap and hold your finger on the screen until you hear three rising tones, and then without lifting your finger, drag your finger on a slider. (Also known as the Pass Through Gesture.) • Tap 2 times on the clock in status bar to scroll to top in any app. •To start or stop an action: Two-finger double-tap. This gesture initiates an action or halts or pauses an action in progress. For example, you can: •Answer or end a call. •Play or pause in Music, Videos, Voice Memos, or Photos (slideshows). •Take a photo in Camera. •Start or pause recording in Camera or Voice Memos. •Start or stop the stopwatch. • Change an item’s label to make it easier to find: Two-finger double-tap and hold. • Open the Item Chooser: Two-finger triple-tap. • Select/deselect text: Turn on "Text Selection" in the VoiceOver rotor settings, then turn the rotor to Text Selection and flick down to character, word, line, etc., and then flick right with one finger to select text. Once selected, turn rotor to edit and flick up or down to copy, print, share, etc. Much easier than the Two-finger Pinch out/in. • Mute or unmute VoiceOver: Three-finger double-tap. If both VoiceOver and Zoom are enabled, use the three-finger triple-tap gesture. • Turn the screen curtain on or off: Three-finger triple-tap. If both VoiceOver and Zoom are enabled, use the three-finger quadruple-tap gesture. • Open or close multitask pane: Four-finger, swipe up or down. • Switch to next or previous app: Four-finger swipe left or right. • For iPad only: Go to home screen: 5 fingers pinch in: put all five fingers on the screen and pinch them in until they are all touching and it is like tapping the home button once. • 3D Touch: Place your finger on an app and press, do not tap, this brings up a shortcut menu depending on the app. For example, on the phone app it brings up your favorites so you can call them quickly. 3D Touch is available on devices like the iPhone 6s, 6s Plus, 7s, 7s Plus. * Other Resources Apple Accessibility Anyone using any kind of accessibility features of any Apple device can call for technical support.
