That's 3D touch. When you land on an app, VO should say, “Use 3D touch to show
home screen actions.” Another way to accomplish this task is by flicking up or
down until you hear, “Show Context Menu,” and when you select that option, a
list of actions will appear.
I reassigned my long press command to 1 finger quadruple tap. HTH.

excellent! Many thanks, LU. This is precisely what I was looking for. I have
changed it now and all is back to normal. I have never explored this commands
section in voice-over before… Learned something new.
BTW, what does a long press do? I haven’t come across this command before.
Kind regards,
Amro

Hi Amro,
The command changed for me after installing iOS 13. To change it back to the
1 finger triple tap, you can go to touch gesture command settings
(Settings>Accessibility>Vision>Commands>Touch gestures) and reassign the
triple tap command to 'Secondary activate'. HTH.

LU

Hi Kevin and all,
Thank goodness, I thought I was losing my marbles!
I’ve just tried double-tapping twice in a very, very quick succession and it
worked!
I’m quite sure though prior to iOS 13 I used to tap the screen thrice to
insert a full stop and space; no idea why Apple had to change it. But never
mind, mystery is now solved.
Many thanks to Kevin and all for your help.
Cheers,
Amro

Hi Amro.
I see what you mean now.
When using standard typing, I've always double tapped two times in very
quick succession to get the full stop and space. As you quite rightly say,
a double tap once just gives a space...
Regards.
Kevin

Alright folks. It seams we are talking at cross purposes. If double-tapping
inserts a full-stop and a space, how do you insert a space without a full
stop then? This is what I do to insert just a space:
- First, I have the typing style set to standard typing.
- I slide my finger on the onscreen keyboard until I find the spacebar
(VoiceOver says space).
- I raise my finger and tap the scream twice.
- A space then is inserted without a full stop.
Isn’t this what everyone does? And if yes, what do you mean by
double-tapping then please?
Sorry to be confused!
Regards,
Amro

Yes, Double-tap on the space bar will insert a full stop and a space.

Sorry Ian, how do you mean? Surely for us VoiceOver users double-tapping
the spacebar only inserts a space? Please explain. Double-tapping inserts
a full stop if you are not using VoiceOver. As I said, I used to tap the
spacebar three times to insert a full stop followed by a space.
The three-tapping ceased to work after upgrading to iOS 13 if memory
serves. And I’ve checked the period shortcut in settings>keyboard and it
is on.

Amro

A double-tap on the spacebar. It works. I have just done it three times.
