When Should You Pause VoiceOver?

In this game, your jungle parrot will read different silly situations. You’ll practice deciding when it’s a good time to use the two-finger tap to pause VoiceOver, and when it’s better to let it keep talking.

Turn VoiceOver ON for this page. Then:

  1. Press “Start Scenarios” below.
  2. Use one-finger swipes to move to the scenario text.
  3. Let VoiceOver read the whole scenario.
  4. Decide: Would you pause VoiceOver here? If yes, actually do the two-finger tap to pause and tap again to resume.
  5. Then choose your answer: “I would pause VoiceOver” or “I would let VoiceOver keep talking.”
