To move to the top of a list tap four fingers near the top of the screen. To go to the bottom of the list tap four fingers near the bottom of the screen. So, once you are in general and you know that "Accessibility" is near the bottom, then tap four fingers near the bottom of the screen and then flick back one. This is just one way. I hope to hear of others.

  Hi. I have been on the road all week, and still am. I have copied Amy Mason on this message, as she is a very capable and knowledgeable technology specialist at the National Center and can probably assist you greatly. I am certain that your questions are shared by several on this list, yours truly being in that number. A great weekend to everyone.

    Hi All,

    I'd appreciate your insights on 3 iPad/iPhone-related questions.



    1. For a beginner totally blind user (5th & 10th grade), what do you suggest as the key "rotor" options for the most streamlined & functional experience?



    2. What are the steps to tactilely read iBooks using the Apex refreshable Braille display? I know that the BrailleNote can be used to navigate & have VoiceOver read the book aloud, but my kids find it faster & more pleasurable (& they remember better) by reading the words tactilely themselves. Are all iBooks readable with the refreshable braille display & if not is there an easy way to tell?



    3. Is there a way to make a shortcut to the "Accessibility" setting or VoiceOver setting? 



    Thanks in advance for your time & insights.

    Eric V
