With respect I'm thinking some folk here are missing the point of my question!

It's understandable as for VO users they may not initially encounter the message on the homkme screen.

I'll ask someone to send me a message whilst I'm on a  call, see how it goes with accepting that message on the home screen and report back.

Think they set it all up beforehand.

Can't remember when the notification comes in how to get tothem quickly.

There is a command for opening notifications.

Still nott sorting out my origia=nal query though.

I will try next time to place my finger almost at the top of the screen as 
diercted by a sighted friend, swipe down and hopefully that should sort it.

Note: the message on the home screen remains only for literally seconds.

Hi,
I have a banner set up in notifications that when a message comes through and I 
am on a call, I take the phone away from my ear which then places the call on 
speakerphone with VoiceOver and I can quickly locate that notification and read 
whatever is needed.

Hi folk

just wondering when say a phone/cell company sends you a message when you are 
on a call for verification is there a way of reading that message quickly on 
the main screen?

I believe that this is possible butrt how to accept such messages using VO?

What I do insrte=ead is to have the messages app open but that is 
time-consunimg when the person atg the other end of the phone is awaiting 
response.

Thanks,

Tony
