I am trying desperately to turn off Switch Control on my iPhone and nothing so far has worked. I have tried clicking the Home button three times, and the option of Switch Control comes up with a check beside it, but with no way to turn it off. Siri when asked to disable switch control will say "Which setting?" which will only bring me to Accessibility but I still can't click anything! Any suggestions appreciated.
iPhone 5, iOS 7
Nevermind, I figured out how to do it by trial and error.
If you are wondering how to turn off switch control with a frozen screen, here's how I did it:
-Ask Siri to "Turn on Voice Control." (She'll turn on/off Voice Control but not Switch Control- go figure.) IOS 7 will not allow both Voice Control and Switch Control to operate together, so when Voice Control is on, Switch Control is off and vice versa.
-With Voice Control on, go to Settings/General/Accessibility. To tap on options, you must tap once to select it in a black box, then twice quickly to execute it. To scroll, you must use three fingers instead of just one.
-Turn off all swiches so the Switches option has a 0 next to it in Switch Control, then turn it off. Tada!
My ipod touch doesn't have voice control. What do I do???
It's actually called VoiceOver. Try that.
Here is what you EVERYBODY WEATHER YOU HAVE WIFI OR NOT OR SIRI OR NOT WHEN YOU IF YOU CAN SEE THE SWITCH CONTROL OPTION SLOWLY TURN HEAD TO THE LEFT IT SHOULD ACTIVATE OR DEACTIVATE ANY SETTING YOU HAVE HIGHLIGHTED
THANKS SO MUCH!
Turn your phone out and and then on again make sure you hold the home button down all the time until the phone is fully off , turn back during this time constantly tap the home button on and off , this will turn off switch control
