This begs the following question: Some of you either have enough vision not to need Voiceover, or maybe you can grab a sighted friend or partner, but I'd love to know if this happens only when Voiceover is running, or does it happen when VO isn't running.

Hi Pete, Well, I guess I’m glad I’m not the only one. :). I agree, it’s super annoying! I think it has something to do with scrolling or swiping gestures not stopping when they should. Because I’ve noticed a related problem. Sometimes, when I swipe up to adjust music volume, it keeps going until the volume is at 100%. This is easier to deal with, you just turn the volume back down using the side buttons, but it’s still kind of annoying. The one thing that seems to be different about the App Library thing, is that it seems to happen most often when I’m unlocking my phone. And yeah, it’s impossible to exit the App Library when that happens. Sometimes, I’ve been able to get out of the App Library by oping the app switcher, then going into an app from there, and then exiting to my Home Screen, but that doesn’t work all of the time. Maybe I will go ahead and send it to Accessibility. Cheers, Donna > On Jan 12, 2025, at 9:32 AM, pdevasto0...@gmail.com wrote: > > Donna, > > This happens to me too, and it's driving me nuts!
