Setting Up VoiceOver
VoiceOver changes the gestures you use to control iPad. Once you turn VoiceOver on,
you must use VoiceOver gestures to operate iPad—even to turn VoiceOver o again
and resume standard operation.
Turn VoiceOver on or o on iPad: In Settings, choose General > Accessibility >
VoiceOver, then tap the VoiceOver On/O switch.
Turn VoiceOver on or o in iTunes: Select iPad in the iTunes sidebar. In the Options
section of the Summary pane, click Congure Universal Access. Select VoiceOver, then
click OK.
You can also set Triple-click Home to turn VoiceOver on or o. See “Triple-Click
Home” on page 11 5 .
Note: You cannot use VoiceOver and Full-screen Zoom at the same time.
VoiceOver Settings
You can set VoiceOver to give spoken hints, increase or decrease the speaking rate,
or give typing feedback.
Turn spoken hints on or o: In Settings, choose General > Accessibility > VoiceOver,
then tap the Speak Hints On/O switch. Spoken hints are turned on by default.
Set the VoiceOver speaking rate: In Settings, choose General > Accessibility >
VoiceOver, then adjust the Speaking Rate slider.
You can choose what kind of feedback you get when you type. You can set VoiceOver
to speak characters, words, both, or nothing. If you choose to hear both characters and
words, VoiceOver speaks each character as you type it, then speaks the whole word
when you enter a space or punctuation.
Choose typing feedback: In Settings, choose General > Accessibility > VoiceOver >
Typing Feedback, then choose Characters, Words, Characters and Words, or Nothing.
You can also change the language spoken by VoiceOver.
Change the language spoken by VoiceOver: In Settings, choose General >
International > Language, then select a language and tap OK.
Some languages may be inuenced by the Region Local setting. In Settings, choose
