Hi Jeannette,
I can't rmemember now if I ever had to turn the phone when changing
pages. Maybe I did, I just don't remember doing it. I met with the
moderator of an iphone user group I am in and she said the issue is
most likely a timing issue in which I am doing the gesture too slow
and that's why it's registering as a swipe. I had a similar problem
when I first got my iPad; the double tap gesture was giving me
trouble. I had to go into settings to change the double tap timeout to
the maximum value and I still have it set that way. I know there isn't
an option like for the scrub gesture, but at least turning the phone
seems to work for now. For some reason I just can't get the back and
forth motion quick enough to be considered a scrub.

doing that. My guess is this will eventually be true for you.

Hello,
I can’t seem to get the phone to recognize the scrub when using a back and
forth motion, but I did get it to work when I turned the phone to landscape
mode and did it up and down. I guess I’ll just have to turn the phone
sideways when I need to use the scrub gesture. Kind of a pain to remember
each time, but it is what it is. I only use landscape mode for certain
things and this may be one of them.

All I do is place two fingers on the screen slightly apart, then scrub
left right left, or is it right left right. It works almost every time.

Hi Jeannette,
I hik for now I’m going to stick with using the back button since I can’t
get the scrub to work consistently. If I can get someone to show me how to
do the gesture, I’ll use it, but for now, the back button is going to b my
best option.

It's an issue with how you're scrubbing. When you scrub keep your fingers
on the phone. When you flick right or left or up and down your fingers
come up off the phone.

Hi Jeannette,
Well I guess I’ll have to use the back button since I can’t get the
gesture to work. My phone thinks I’m flicking when I do the scrub
gesture. My old phone did the same thing, so I’m thinking it’s an issue
with how I’m holdig my hand.

If you think about the dots on a slate and stylus, you would do dots one
and four, then do a diagonal down to dot three, and go to dot six. If
that doesn't work, just do a line up and a line down, very short, not
much pressure. Again, if that doesn't work, just go to the "back"
button.

Hi Jeannette,
I’m net sure what a print Z looks like. Can you try and describe it in
terms of a braille cell? That secmed to help me when I was learning to
write my signature.

You're working way too hard. Sometimes scrubbing just doesn't work and
using the "back" button is more efficient. That being said, consider
the following. Make sure your hands are not too cold and that there is
no extra junk on your screen (bits of stuff, or even a drop of water).
Use two fingers, and my husband and I have done gestures sort of like a
print Z, or up and down. I usually try it once or twice, but if it
doesn't work and I can go back, I just use the "back" button. Also,,
keeping your touch lighter as you move your two fingers may help.

Hello,
I would have brought this up at the last meeting, but unfortunately I
was out of town and wasn’t able to join. Therefore, I was hoping
someone could offer some suggestions. I am strugling with the two
finger scrub gesture on IOS. The only way I’m successful with it is to
shake my whole hand back and forth which makes my wrist sore after a
while. When I have my braille display handy, I usually just do a b
chord to activate the back button, but if I don’t have it handy, I
resort to finding and double tapping the back button. Does anyone have
any suggestions on how I can do the scrub gesture that doesn’t involve
shaking my wrist? I understand my wrist will move a little, but I
shouldn’t have to shake my entire hand to do thh gesture.
Kind Regards,
Kelsey Nicolay***
