One finger swipe up or down
In general, a one finger swipe up or down adjusts the accessibility volume up or down. When an adjustable item is highlighted, the swipe changes the actual value of the highlighted item instead.
Two fingers swipe up or down, or turn the bezel: scroll upward or downward
Users can scroll up or down screens by swiping upward or downward with two fingers.
As with the one finger swipe, the highlight remains fixed at the center.
When the scroll reaches the end, the device reads the highlighted control.
Note: During scrolling, the highlight does not move.
When the highlighted control disappears after the user swipes up or down with two fingers, the highlight moves to the next or previous control, and the device reads out loud.
When all controls are out of the screen, the device highlights and reads the first or last control in the content area of the current screen.
Two fingers swipe left and right: Change pages and screens
Swipe left or right anywhere on the screen with two fingers to move to the previous or next page.
All Voice Assistant UI controls have highlights.
