Sorry if i'm being thick here, butwhat do you mean by the friends icon? Do you
mean the friend requests? Do you have the latest update

Hello,
One way to write to a specific person is to choose the Your Profile Tab.
Navigate to the Friends item and double tap here.
You should now have a list of your friends.
Double tap your chosen friend and you should have a button to write to that
friend.

Hello,
On the News Feed Tab locate the What's on your mind? Button
Here you can chose who can see your post and you will have an edit area
where you can compose your post. Once complete find the Post Button and you’re
done.

Then you want to select the Facebook menu button. I am not running
the latest iOS software so my tab says more. Sorry about that.

Hi
Here is how to initiate a conversation on Facebook with one of
your friends.
On the bottom of the screen, there are tabs for Newsfeed, Watch
i.e. videos, Requests, Market Place, Notifications and More. Double tap on the
more button. This will bring you to your personal Home page.
Double tap on the friends button. Just swipe right going down
the page until you hear friends. Then select the friend you want to write
something on their wall. Double tap the friend’s name and it will take you to
their personal home page. Swiping left to right going down the page, you will
come to a field that will read as “write something on this page or post on
their wall. Double tap that field and the keyboard pops up and you can type
the message and then click or double tap post when you are done. If there is
no field read aloud to write something, it is usually because that friend has
their privacy settings set so that no one can write on their wall.
There is a work around for this. You can write on your wall and
tag that person in the post or simply type their name in the field. For
instance, you can double tap at the top of your newsfeed where it says check in
or write something. Then begin typing Mary Smith how about those Steelers
(lol). Then tap post. Rather double tap post.
One thing I did not mention in my previous email is opening posts
that contain more than one name. I sometimes get a post of a video and it
reads as an example, Mary Smith and John Brown shared a video. Simply one
finger double tap does not open the post. I figured out that I had to double
tap and hold on the second tap in order to open the post so I could view the
video. It sometimes takes a couple of tries to get it to open.
If you have any more questions, I am happy to answer if I am
able.
Kathy

Great tip about reading text in a picture, I had always asumed
this was something we just couldn't read.
The main thing i don't know about facebook is how to initiate a
conversation with someone. Once a conversation has started I can reply or like
but can't start the conversation so instructions on how to do that would be
great.
Thanks Linda

Hi
I use Facebook on my phone all the time so I will try my best
to describe some tips and gestures to you through writing.
First, you simply one finger double tap to open a post where
you can view the like button, comment, and share button. You can also view any
comments people made.
Second, if you do not want to view the post, you can double tap
with two fingerts to bring up a menu of like, react, comment, share, and more.
The more button provides other options such as saving the post, unfollowing a
post, hiding a post etc. If you just want to react to a post, single tap with
one finger on the react choice and another menu pops up with like, love, wow,
haha, sad, and angry. Single finger double tap on the emotion you want to
select.
Pictures with text in the image are not readable with voice
over. However, I heard this tip the other day when listening to one of the
Tech talk podcasts on accessible Worl. You open the post and then put the
focus on the picture and then three finger single tap and a description of the
picture and some or most or all of the text is read. You must be running the
most current version of IOS for this to work.
Sharing a post is simple. You can choose to share now with
your friends, write a message along with the post, send in messenger or copy
the link. When writing a post, a new page opens with the post and there is a
field in that page to compose a message along with the post. It will say
“write something” when the focus is on that field. Double tap and a keyboard
pops up. To tag someone, you can do it in two different ways. One is to type
the person’s name into that field. The easier way is to select the option that
reads add more to your post and you will get more options such as tag a friend,
feelings/emotions i.e. I am feeling happy or blessed or frustrated etc. If you
choose tag a friend, a list of your friends pops up and you select a friend you
want to tag by simply one finger double tap their name and then select the done
button in the upper right had corner. Then one finger double tap the post
button at the top.
There is more things you can do but these are the basic and
will get you started. I signed up for Facebook about nine years ago but
recently began using it on my phone because the website got so complicated with
things popping up and interfering with my screen reader on the computer that I
just gave up with it. Now that I have it on my phone, I am on it every day.
So much easier.

So I got the Facebook app on my phone. Anyone got tips and
tricks for how to get around on this app, how to move between posts, read all
the comments on something, etc. etc. etc.? I use the mobile app on my desktop
computer because it is less cluttered than the “big” Facebook site, , but this
looks different.
Thanks.
