Learn to master your iPhone using VoiceOver! After a few high jinks, Junie and Brian show how to use the Phone and Messages apps using VoiceOver to effectively communicate. February 2025, iOS 18 What You’ll Learn: • How to navigate the Phone app using VoiceOver, including tabs like Favorites, Recents, Contacts, Keypad, and Voicemail. • How to read, compose, and send text messages efficiently in the Messages app—with dictation, group chats, and a few hidden landmines. • How to create and manage contacts, use Siri for quick communication, and access options like blocking or reporting spam calls. Pro Tips Shared: • Add frequent contacts to your Favorites tab so you’re not scrolling like a lost space probe every time you want to call Grandma. • Use Siri for fast actions like “Call Mom” or “Message Jenny”—unless Jenny’s number is still 867-5309, in which case… good luck. • Dictation is your best friend: two-finger double tap to start talking, again to stop, and send with one more swipe. • Use the section index in Contacts for fast scrolling by letter—because flicking through 500 names just to find “Zelda” is a tragic misuse of TFlops.
