Don, I assume you have the list of the gestures. A two finger swipe down will read from wherever the VoiceOver cursor is to the end if you do not touch the screen or turn the device from portrait to landscaped, or back without the orientation being locked. If you want to read from the very top down, swipe up with two fingers. That works best in email, rather than on web pages as you often do not want to read everything from the top of a web page. To interrupt the continuous reading, you just touch with two fingers. That should be immediate. If it isn't, something went wrong. And, if you have interrupted the reading, and not touched the screen again, another two finger touch will continue reading from where it had stopped. But, yes, practice gets closer to perfect. HTH, Richard

Actually as part of my job I am needing to use apps like Safari (pretty basic I know). However, I have noticed that I am struggling to get consistent results from VoiceOver. For example sometimes when I use the two-finger swipe down to read an entire web page, noting happens some times it works. Also When I use a double-finger single tap to stop VoiceOver's reading often it doesn't stop as expected. Are there any tricks to getting consistent results when working with VoiceOver gestures? Obviously there is no substitute for experience, but I need to get up to speed fairly quickly. Thanks, Don -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
