I have cerebral palsy and like using VoiceOver but I cannot double tap. I'm too slow and it does not register as a double tap. Is there anyway I can fix this or record gesture?
I've tried having someone record it but it only recorded as a single tap.
iPad, iOS 6.1.4
As far as I know you have to tap twice with three fingers to simulate a double tap
We tried that with the record gesture but it still does not work because you can only do single tap.
I'm not sure if you meant something else but I am unable to double tap with one finger let alone three.
tap with 3 fingers twice to preform a double tap
Oh i missunderstood you . You wanted to record a doble tap gesture. Ok what you can do is go to the assistive touch settings in accesibilty and turn it on and add a new gesture. there you'll be able to record it. You can use it by pressing virtual home button that appears.
Let me explain better. I like to do VoiceOver because I can't read well. While VoiceOver is on, you can't do anything (ex. opening apps) without double tapping. The problem is with my motor skills due to my cerebral palsy I cant double tap. With assistive touch, it won't let you record a double tap at all.
OK. I try to find a solution, however i dont think that is possible
Thanks I appreciate any help. I think it's stupid that it solves everything but double tap. I know that I'm not the only one who can't double tap.
Hi! Im sorry but I was unable to find a solution but that doesn't mean it isnt there. I'll report this to Apple.
Ok thanks:)
