Hi
I'm using iOS 9.3 on my iPhone 5C. I was wondering how VoiceOver chooses the default rotor option. For example, if I were to turn Voiceover off and then on again, and entered a text field, would it default to the first rotor option [as listed in VoiceOver settings], or the characters option, as it is the smallest navigational increment? I want VO to default to words, but am not sure if this is actually possible.
Help appreciated.

Just tried this
I just tried this and it seems like when turning it off and on it saves where you had it. I'm using a 6s with IOS 9.3.1
iPhone 7 Seems the Same
I've been checking out the rotor on my iPhone 7 and accidentally switched VO off. When I turned it back on the rotor seemed to default to where I had it before, so yes I think this is correct. The rotor is a pretty interesting concept on the iPhone. I'm finding it to be sort of like tapping on somebody's window. I'm still getting the hang of it but it's kinda neat.
Can't see going with out it
I think the main thing that would hold me back from going to Droid would be the lack of a Rotor.
I don't think Android has a
I don't think Android has a rotor, I believe they use a menu system instead.
I'm only going off podcasts so I could be wrong.
You have to draw a capital L on the screen to bring it up, something a lot of blind people apparently have trouble with.
Either that, or it's really picky about how well you do the gesture.

That's what I said. haha
