[NFBF-L] tip for the latest version of Facebook on iPhone with voiceover

[Peggy Fleischer]

Thanks for the tip Ryan. It actually works very well. I changed the gesture as you suggested.

One alternative is to do a two finger scrub. I personally find this gesture annoying, so I assigned another gesture to do this. If you want to do this, go to settings, Accessibility, VoiceOver, Commands, Touch gestures and find a gesture that you don't use. Assign it to Escape. I reassigned tapping one time with 3 fingers to escape, so now I  just tap one time with three fingers to get out of a Facebook post.
