Hi Ed and all, a side point about Siri - I usually keep holding down the Home button until I finish giving instructions to Siri. This way I make sure Siri doesn’t kick in before I finish talking if I pause for a beat or two while speaking. Just a little hint if someone else like me finds this an issue.

Cheers,
Amro

Hi Mike,

If you don't have ready access to sighted assistance, you could try asking Siri to turn on Voiceover assuming Siri is set up.

Try holding in the home button until you hear a double beep. Release it and say 'Hi Siri, turn on Voiceover'.

If that doesn't work and you have access to a computer with iTunes installed, you should be able to connect your phone with the cable provided and turn Voiceover from within iTunes.

Triple clicking the home button won't work unless you've specifically set it up.

Cheers,

Ed

Hello Again

I took George's advice and visited the Vodaphone store this morning. A very helpful lady sorted out the sim for me, but before handing the phone back, apparently switched off voice over. Can anyone tell me how I switch it back on?

I have tried 3 clicks of the home key with out success.

With thanks in advance

Mike.
