Hi Jed, This may be one of those situations where a written explanation might do little good but somebody looking at what you do as you are doing it could make all the difference. Don't you have an Apple Store nearby where you could make an appointment and get a genious, preferably one who knows Voiceover, show/teach you how this is done? Barring that how about another sighted person who has an iPhone X model as well and who could observe what you do and then try and show you? I strongly suggest you find somebody who can coach you with this because while you could get an iPhone 8 (if you are still in the time when you can return your XR, this is only a temporary solution since I don't see the home button coming back.

I'm really struggling with it on the 10 r. In my eyes, i am doing everything as advertised, swiping up, holding my finger on the screen. The phone just keeps going click click click click click click click, click click click. It's very much hit or miss. I'd say out of 12 times i try and unlock the phone i may get it once. I've never struggled with something like this this bad. What is the secret? -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
