Navigating in Manual Mode
In Manual mode, you can move by page, by sentence, and by word.
To move forward one page, swipe to the left with one finger. To move forward one sentence, swipe left with two
fingers. To move forward one word, swipe left with three fingers.
To move backward a page, swipe to the right with one finger. To move back one sentence, swipe right with two
fingers. To move backward one word, swipe right with three fingers.
If you are moving word by word, you can move to a word to select it and then use the Menu mode to select an op-
tion for defining the word or spelling the word. Menu mode is described below.
Using the Menu System
You can switch to Menu mode from Manual mode by pressing and holding on the screen. Once you enter Menu
mode, the Accessibility Reader announces the currently highlighted menu selection. Single flicks up or down will move
you through the various menu items.
Once you have found the menu choice you want to select, double-tap the screen to select it.
For menu selections that require no further interaction (for example, defining the current word), the Accessibility
Reader automatically returns to Manual mode once the menu item’s action is complete.
For selections that require further user interaction and some means to indicate completion (for example, selecting a
dierent speech rate), a two-finger double tap completes the action and returns the Accessibility Reader to Manual
mode.
Changing Modes
To toggle between Auto mode and Manual mode, tap once with one finger on the screen.
When you enter Auto mode, the Reader starts at the top of the current page. If you toggle back into Auto mode
from Manual mode, the Accessibility Reader will pick up the text at the point you left o.
From Manual mode, you can enter Menu mode by pressing and holding anywhere on the screen. (On some smart-
phones, this gesture is called a long press.) Upon entering Menu mode, the Reader displays a menu over the current
text and announces the current menu item.
To return to Manual mode from Menu mode without performing any of the available actions, simply double-tap with
two fingers.
