Hi Carol,
Try it when you have sighted help. I bet you're not holding the button in
quite long enough first go.
This is one area of the iPhone that is shamefully inaccessible. It
wouldn't
have hurt them to make it vibrate when it's time to release the button,
like
they do with Android phones.
All the best
Steve

Can only add, Jackie, that my iPhone, mysteriously perhaps, has never
booted
for me on first boot, even if i count really carefully, add or subtract a
sec or two whilst holding in the button. I always have to boot the second
time!

Hi,
No, you've missed nothing. Android vibrates, but not Apple.
All the best

This proves there is nothing definitive that I have missed, (smile).
Apple,
let's have a vibratory or audible sound, please? Glad it isn't just me!
Kind regards,

Not perfect, but very simple. I flip the mute on and off. If the phone
doesn't vibrate, it's turned off.
Cheers

Perhaps this is just me, but I find it difficult to know whether my
iPhone
is off or on when I have needed to reboot it, say having been on an
aircraft. Nokia handsets gave me a definite vibration when they turned
on,
as does my S4 Mini with Telorion. But I never know whether I have held
the
power button in long enough for the iPhone, and therefore don't know if
it
is booting or not. Is there a definitive way of knowing this without
seeing
the screen light up? Other than that, I have no complaints about
accessibility of built-in apps and restoration etc.
Kind regards,
Jackie Brown

There are some apps that I've installed that have unlabelled buttons, and
one or two that are just impossible to use with VO, but accessibility of
the
iPhone itself seems to be just fine. I've done resets and fresh installs
with no problems.
The thing I do think could be better is accessibility of iTunes. It's a
lot
better than it was, but it's still not easy.
Cheers
Barry

Hello list,
This is for regular and experienced iPhone users:
What would be your top 3 accessibility issues with the iPhone? For
example,
are there instances where sighted assistance is simply unavoidable for
performing an operating system related task? Can one reset the phone to
default factory settings without sighted help?
Sincerely,
Matthew
