Setting Up VoiceOver Important: VoiceOver changes the gestures used to control iPod touch. Once VoiceOver is turned on, you have to use VoiceOver gestures to operate iPod touch- even to turn VoiceOver off again to resume standard operation. The tasks in this section describe how to change VoiceOver settings when VoiceOver is turned off. To learn how to select items, tap, adjust sliders, and perform other actions when VoiceOver is turned on, see "Using VoiceOver" on page 195. Turn VoiceOver on or off: In Settings, choose General > Accessibility > VoiceOver and tap the VoiceOver On/Off switch. You can also set Triple-click Home to turn VoiceOver on or off. See "Triple-click Home" on page 203. Note: You cannot use VoiceOver and Zoom at the same time.

When Speak Hints is turned on, VoiceOver may tell you the action of the item or provide instructions for you-for example, "doubletap to open." Speak Hints is turned on by default. Set the VoiceOver speaking rate: In Settings, choose General > Accessibility > VoiceOver, and 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 finish it by entering a space or punctuation.

Use phonetics Use pitch change In Settings, choose General > Accessibility > VoiceOver, then tap the Use Phonetics switch to turn it on.

In Settings, choose General > Accessibility > VoiceOver, then tap the Use Pitch Change switch to turn it on. VoiceOver uses a higher pitch when entering a letter, and a lower pitch when deleting a letter. VoiceOver also uses a higher pitch when speaking the first item of a group (such as a list or table) and a lower pitch when speaking the last item of a group. Chapter 27 Accessibility 191

Setting Up VoiceOver

Important:

VoiceOver changes the gestures used to control iPod touch. Once

VoiceOver is turned on, you have to use VoiceOver gestures to operate iPod touch—

even to turn VoiceOver oﬀ again to resume standard operation.

The tasks in this section describe how to change VoiceOver settings when VoiceOver

is turned oﬀ. To learn how to select items, tap, adjust sliders, and perform other actions

when VoiceOver is turned on, see “Using VoiceOver” on page 195.

Turn VoiceOver on or oﬀ:

In Settings, choose General > Accessibility > VoiceOver and

tap the VoiceOver On/Oﬀ switch.

You can also set Triple-click Home to turn VoiceOver on or oﬀ. See “

Triple-click

Home” on page 203.

Note:

You cannot use VoiceOver and Zoom at the same time.

Turn spoken hints on or oﬀ:

In Settings, choose General > Accessibility > VoiceOver,

and tap the Speak Hints On/Oﬀ switch. When Speak Hints is turned on, VoiceOver may

tell you the action of the item or provide instructions for you—for example, “double-

tap to open.” Speak Hints is turned on by default.

Set the VoiceOver speaking rate:

In Settings, choose General > Accessibility >

VoiceOver, and 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 ﬁnish it by entering a space or punctuation.

Choose typing feedback:

In Settings, choose General > Accessibility > VoiceOver >

Typing Feedback, then choose Characters, Words, Characters and Words, or Nothing.

Use phonetics

In Settings, choose General > Accessibility > VoiceOver, then

tap the Use Phonetics switch to turn it on.

Use this feature when you type or read character-by-character,

to help make clear which characters were spoken. When Use

Phonetics is turned on, Voiceover ﬁrst speaks the character,

then speaks a word beginning with the character. For

example, if you type the character “f,” VoiceOver speaks “f,” and

then a moment later, “foxtrot.”

Use pitch change

In Settings, choose General > Accessibility > VoiceOver, then

tap the Use Pitch Change switch to turn it on.

VoiceOver uses a higher pitch when entering a letter, and

a lower pitch when deleting a letter. VoiceOver also uses a

higher pitch when speaking the ﬁrst item of a group (such as

a list or table) and a lower pitch when speaking the last item

of a group.
