In my case this only worked if I tapped on the actual button, it was not enough 
to put Voiceover focus on the button and then double tap and hold and drag down 
anywhere.
Find the Messages Apps button by exploring the screen, once you found it, 
double tap on that exact spot, hold on the second tap and drag your finger down 
to the bottom of the phone.

When I found the button that says "messaging apps" and double tapped and held, 
I heard the tri-tones, then slid my finger down and there was another sound and 
the buttons along the bottom disappeared as advertised.

In the messages app in ios 11 there is a doc like on your home screen.  You
can make it disappear if you want.  To do this, you have to find the message
apps button on the actual screen.  I believe it is to the left of the
message edit field.   Once you find the message apps button, just do a
double tap and hold, then without lifting your finger, slide it to the
bottom of the screen.

Hope this helps.

Hey guys,

OK, i made the plunge to IOS 11 and all seems to be working well.
Question on the messages app.  When i am typing a message, the send
button doesn't seem to be in the usual spot.  Across the bottom of the
messages app there seems to be buttons like twitter, youtube, etc.
Any reason why they are there?  When i open up a message, what's the
best way to get to the edit field to type a message?

Cheers,
Jed
