Using the VoiceOver rotor control

The rotor control is a virtual dial that you can use to change the results of up and down flick gestures when VoiceOver is turned on.

Operate the rotor: Rotate two fingers on the iPad screen around a point between them.

Change the options included in the rotor: Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver > Rotor and select the options you want to be available using the rotor.

The effect of the rotor depends on what you’re doing. When you read text in an email, you can use the rotor to switch between hearing text spoken word-by-word, character-by-character, or line- by-line when you flick up or down. When you browse a webpage, you can use the rotor setting to hear all the text (either word-by-word or character-by-character), or to jump from one element to another of a certain type, such as headers or links.
