I may be wrong, but I think some of the features under Voiceover Recognition are not available on the iPhone 8. For those who have newer phones, definitely iPhone 11 which is what I have and possibly iPhone XR, you can turn image and screen recognition on or off in Voiceover Settings under Voiceover Recognition. If you turn it on you then get a list of all your apps where you can turn it on or off and you can, of course, add it to the rotor. I use a VoIP phone app called 3CX which is set up to work with my business telephone system. This app was completely inaccessible on my old iPhone 8 and also on newer phones with screen recognition turned off. However, with screen recognition turned on the app becomes almost completely accessible, not perfect, but I can access recent calls, the keypad, settings and other areas. I therefore turned on Screen Recognition in Voiceover Settings > Voiceover Recognition, but then I went through my list of apps and turned it off for all apps except for 3CX, this way whenever I open 3CX it is on and for other apps I can turn it as well as image recognition on using the rotor if I want it. It's a fantastic new feature of iOS 14.

The Describe Images option on the rotor controls its function per individual application. If I'm wrong someone please correct me. Stay safe and take care.

Not sure what its relationship is with the Rotor, does the Rotor override the setting here?

I believe the only way to do this is to add, Describe Images, to the rotor and once it's on the rotor you highlight it and flick up and down to turn it on and off for each app. Stay safe and take care.

However, isn’t there somewhere to turn this off under voiceover? I can’t seem to find it. Is that feature available in a newer model of the iPhone or am I just missing something which is highly likely? Thanks!
