Hi there, i'm a sight loss adviser intern at my local sight loss charity. I'm looking for game ideas that use the basic voice over gestures, swiping left and right, double tapping as i'm teaching a clicent VoiceOver and if i can make the sessions more useful and fun with a game, this would be brilliant. Any recommendations greatly appreciated.

Hopefully it's still on the app store.

Is that a free app? When I first got my iPhone in 2018, my tutor at Second Sense recommended a free app from LookTell that doesn't appear to be available anymore. It was called something like VO Tutorial, and included a basketball game. I couldn't keep the game going though for some reason. But I think a sister of mine could use one of these apps.

Hi all, thanks for your suggestions so far, they're really helpful. I will give these a look.

File the query "screen reader" in the AppStore and you'll find a free app that should help you practice VO gestures. It's not a real game, but a kind of tutorial that may also help sighted peers who want to master VO commands.

Per your instructions, I searched for "Screen Reader in the App Store and only found apps that allow one to read text aloud. I didn't see anything resembling what you described. Can you provide the exact name of the app you're recommending, or better yet, can you provide the link that takes you directly to it's page in the App Store. Thanks.
