Learn to master your iPhone using VoiceOver!
In part 3 of our continuing VoiceOver tutorial, we cover the on-screen keyboard, the different ways of interacting with that keyboard and using dictation to transcribe our words rather than using the on-screen keyboard.
December 2024, iOS 18
 
What You’ll Learn:
• How to switch between the letter, numbers, and symbols keyboards using VoiceOver on an iPhone.
• How the three VoiceOver typing modes—Standard, Touch, and Direct Touch—change how you enter text.
• How to identify and navigate around key elements of the on-screen keyboard, including delete, return, and dictation.
 
Pro Tips Shared:
• Practice each typing mode to see which one fits your style—touch typing is a favorite for many VoiceOver users once you get the hang of it.
• Pay attention to the insertion point—VoiceOver reads characters as it passes them, not what it's on, which affects how you delete or edit text.
• Use the rotor to quickly switch typing modes without leaving the keyboard.
