Sorry, I made an error. As mentioned, it is three fingers tap screen four times. Then it should say copied to paste board.
Thanks for the person who provided the VO Z command to just hear the last spoken text without copying it. I didn't know that either. Its the little things that can help. :) Daniel On 10 Jul 2014, at 19:51, Alex Hall <mehg...@icloud.com> wrote: > Oh wow, sorry, I missed the iOS part of the question completely.
