Note: You cannot use VoiceOver and Zoom at the same time.
Zoom in or out: Double-tap the screen with three ngers. By default, the screen is
magnied by 200 percent. If you manually change the magnication (by using the
tap-and-drag gesture, described below), iPod touch automatically returns to that
magnication when you zoom in by double-tapping with three ngers.
Increase magnication: With three ngers, tap and drag toward the top of the
screen (to increase magnication) or toward the bottom of the screen (to decrease
magnication). The tap-and-drag gesture is similar to a double-tap, except you don’t
lift your ngers on the second tap—instead, drag your ngers on the screen. Once you
start dragging, you can drag with a single nger.
Move around the screen: When zoomed in, drag or ick the screen with three ngers.
Once you start dragging, you can drag with a single nger so that you can see more
of the screen. Hold a single nger near the edge of the display to pan to that side of
the screen image. Move your nger closer to the edge to pan more quickly. When you
open a new screen, Zoom always goes to the top-middle of the screen.
White on Black
Use White on Black to invert the colors on the iPod touch display, which may make it
easier to read the screen. The screen looks like a photographic negative when White
on Black is turned on.
Invert the screen’s colors: In Settings, choose General > Accessibility and tap the
“White on Black” switch.
Mono Audio
Mono Audio combines the sound of the left and right channels into a mono signal
played on both sides. This enables users with hearing impairment in one ear to hear
the entire sound signal with the other ear.
Turn Mono Audio on or o: In Settings, choose General > Accessibility and tap the
Mono Audio switch.
Speak Auto-text
Speak Auto-text speaks the text corrections and suggestions iPod touch makes when
you’re typing.
Turn Speak Auto-text on or o: In Settings, choose General > Accessibility and tap
the Speak Auto-text switch.
Speak Auto-text also works with VoiceOver or Zoom.
