[BlindTlk] i'phone - IOS Question

[Ericka]

“Reader available” doesn’t always exist.  Wish it was on all but I’ve noticed its there more than in the past. Progress!!! Wish i had another option. Just keep swiping i guess.

VO says it is selected but you will need to double tap it anyway Generally this solves the problem and you should be able to read to the bottom. However, it is true that from time to time, you will be bounced back up to the start of the page but if you rest a finger down the screen a ways, you can often get back to where you were reading. Don't double tap the "reader options" button because then it will give you info about print stuff.

I have not restarted my mail from the Electronics Talk list yet, so I'm fielding a question out here. I'm having a slight problem with Voice Over on my i'phone 6S, but think it's just a matter of having accidentally changed a setting which can be easily changed back.

Until a few weeks ago, I could click on the title of the article then swipe down on the screen to read it. I've noticed that starting with the previous update to IOS, I have to do an extra step and hit "View" before it loads. Now, I'm finding that while I can still read the articles, after my phone reads up to a certain point, Voice over says "Back", and I have to scroll past some images or links to go further. I continue reading and the same thing happens. In some cases, I never make it to the end of the article because when I try to go further, either advertisements or links to other related content supersede everything else. Is there something I need to turn off in settings? Do I need to change how Voice Over is scrolling, if that is even possible?
