>>> I'm wondering if there is a way to turn Voice Over off and on without going into the settings?  Over Christmas I was playing games with sighted family members on my iPad.  We were passing it back and forth, working on a single puzzle among the whole group.  It was fun, but turning VO off so they could use it more easily and then back on for me was a pain.

>>> I know how to turn the speech off with a three finger double tap, but that only mutes the sound.  The gestures are still the same as with VO turned on.  I thought I read somewhere that you could press the home button three times quickly to turn VO off and on, but that doesn't seem to work. I've  tried looking on the Apple site and the Applevis site with no luck.
