VoiceOver
VoiceOver describes aloud what appears onscreen, so you can use iPod touch without seeing it.
VoiceOver tells you about each item on the screen as you select it. The VoiceOver cursor (a
rectangle) encloses the item and VoiceOver speaks its name or describes it.
Touch the screen or drag your nger over it to hear the items on the screen. When you select
text, VoiceOver reads the text. If you turn on Speak Hints, VoiceOver may tell you the name of the
item and provide instructions—for example, “double-tap to open.” To interact with items, such as
buttons and links, use the gestures described in Learn VoiceOver gestures on page 115 .
When you go to a new screen, VoiceOver plays a sound, then selects and speaks the rst item
of the screen (typically, the item in the upper-left corner). VoiceOver also lets you know when
the display changes to landscape or portrait orientation, and when the screen becomes locked
or unlocked.
Note: VoiceOver speaks in the language specied in International settings, which may be
inuenced by the Region Format setting in Settings > General > International. VoiceOver is
available in many languages, but not all.
VoiceOver Basics
Important: VoiceOver changes the gestures you use to control iPod touch. When VoiceOver is on,
you must use VoiceOver gestures to operate iPod touch—even to turn VoiceOver o.
Turn VoiceOver on or o. Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver, or use the
Accessibility Shortcut. See Accessibility Shortcut on page 111.
Explore. Drag your nger over the screen. VoiceOver speaks each item you touch. Lift your nger
