iPhone and iPad

Hi,
Does anyone know how to move up and down using a keyboard on IOS or IpadOS. I'm not looking to swipe up or down, but to do the equivillant of moving your finger up or down.
Problem I'm having is, I'm trying to play chess or the "playgrounds" of IpadOS, and when I'm in a grid, I can't move via rows in the grid.
Any suggestions?
PS: turning full keboard access on actually sems to break things, more than solve things in regards to what I'm trying to do.

Hi all,
I have recently returned to iPad, and have an iPad Air M3 running iPad OS 26. I'm keen to explore the new multitasking options, but can't for the life of me figure out how! I've made sure the multitasking option in settings is set to stage manager, but can't figure out, when I have an app open, how to then open another app in a new window, and have both on screen simultaneously.
Any insight you can give is much appreciated :)

I think it's a photo of a medical report.

I tried grabbing message source and extracting what looked like base64 data and decoding that, but didn't get anything usable back.

iOS just says "null image" when I swipe to it, even with "describe images" on.

NVDA's Win10 OCR doesn't do much of anything, just gives me one line of garbage!

Any help much appreciated.

Is it possible to open apps from the locked screen with Siri?

I often find myself in the situation where the phone is locked and in my pocket, I am wearing my Airpods, and would like to say something like "open tuneIn Radio" to start playing the last station I was listening to or to run one of my shortcuts using voice commands.

When I try this, Siri usually responds "You'll have to unlock your iPhone first".

I noticed that today’s updated Apple Store has added a feature that provides dictated images of the product for people who are inconvenient to look at the screen.According to my understanding, I think this should add a voice description to the product, so we don't need to use VoiceOver to read the content of the product introduction page.But I did not find them on the introduction page of any product.So what is going on here?Is it that Apple has not had time to add it or is it only available to users of certain languages?

Is it possible to get apps/ find strategies that can help me free/clean up ram and memory on my phone i will not jailbreak my iPhone in any ways! I often close apps from the appswitcher, when I’ not using them. I've seen a few apps that say they can free up ram and memory on the device, but they are not often accessible, and a little hard to figure out. Do you have any recommendations about getting the most out of an iPhone 5c without jailbreaking it thanks in advance for any reply/advice on this topic. Best regards Thomasm

Hello all,

I want to know how can I pass through VoiceOver gesture to the system gestures in iPhone? We have this optin the Inda N V D Ascreen reader in Windows. If we press NVDA plus F2 Dugg NVDA shortcut key will not work for the next keypress. And also this option is available in talkback in android as a pass-through system gesture. Is there any similar option in voiceover screen reader?

Hello all!
When I copy file or folder in the native Files app and have Braille display or hardware keyboard connected, pasting is easily done via a simple key press.
Unfortunately, I can not figure out how to paste when one just uses touch screen?
Any hint will be highly apreciated.

Hello, all!
I just got a lightning to USB adapter in hopes of being able to play my large collection of mp3s from a flash drive on my iPhone 6s Plus.
It works, but I have the files on the usb organized as folders by artist, then sub folders for each album, then individual files for each song.
The files can be opened and played using the native files app, but only one at a time. Is there a way to select all the files at once so they are played one after the other?

hello,
One or two years ago on iPhone 4s I could play piano using garageBand with voiceover but now the settings are displayed and I cannot play anything by tapping the screen with iPhone se and iOs11.4.
So how can I play piano or any other instrument without turning off voiceover just like one or two years ago?
Thanks.

I would like to contribute an iOS/iPadOS bug report to the community, but when I look through the available options or categories, I cannot seem to find a way or a specific section to submit one.
Could someone please guide me on the correct process or let me know how to post an iOS or iPadOS bug report here?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Hello,
Prior to iOS 26.3 I could power down my iPhone using the side and the volume up button.
Since installing 26.3 this seems no longer possible.Is there a button combination that allows me to do this?
Thanks for any help.

Hello,

I am reading a book in another language and I want to look a word up in the dictionary of my mother tongue, which is not implemented in Voice Dream Reader, than add it in another app. When switching between apps or even tapping in another part of the app, I lose my exact focus and I have to re-read a sentence or two before finding it. Sometimes, I accidentally tap on the text and go further with the finger-reading option, which seems to continue to work even if I disabled it.

Hi,
I'm new to roger and I noticed everytime I launch the app it comes up telling me about the new conversations feature. Is there a way to disable this?
Thanks

Hello everyone. The most recent "why get an Ipad?" topic prompted me to ask this question:

I am a writer and I would like to use my Ipad Pro and/or Iphone 6S Plus to work on my writing while out and about. Since I primarily use Microsoft Word on a PC I need to be able to seamlessly transfer documents between the two devices. That part's easy. My question is in regards to the actual text editing - particularly navigation.

I know I can go to the settings to change the voice that Voiceover is using on my iOS device.

My question is: What is the quickest way to change the voice used by Voiceover on an iOS device? I thought there might be a rotor setting for this similar to switching languages, but apparently not. Is there a quicker way than digging into the settings?

Thanks.

Hi all.

I've tried from time to time to rate apps in the app store but have never been able to successfully do it.

Is there a podcast or a guide to how to do thisavailable?

There's a few apps like Weather Gods and Dice world I'd love to give a 5 star review too.

If anyone can give me some good tips I'd be much appreciated.

Thanks From Snowy.
