Sieghard, Does it copy the link, then, too, or just the "link" text?
Thanks.

I even used it on a larger segment of text, maybe 2 or 3 lines, and it worked. 2 things, though: 1. You can't use the 3-finger quadruple tap to paste the text, once you copied the text this way and go to an edit field where you want to paste it, you have to turn the rotor to Edit and select Paste. Not a big deal, but I thought I point it out. 2. If you copy a phone number in an email, where Voiceover will, for example say this: 450-222-3333 phone number detected If you use the 3-finger quadruple tap and paste it you also get the text "phone number detected" at the end of the number. Same applies if it says "link" after a link, you will get the word "link" added at the end. It really does copy the last spoken text even if this includes something that is not actually there. But it still is a very useful feature.

However, in iOS 7 there is a new gesture of the 3 finger quadruple tap to copy the last spoken text, and again on another edit field to paste that text. I haven't used this yet, but it seems to be easier than pinching. Regards, Wayne On 10/20/13, Alex Hall <mehg...@gmail.com> wrote: > Ah, my apologies for the mistake.
