@fastfinge in reading this entry, yes you can turn off things like raise to wake, and touch to wake. I have mine set that way as I absolutely hate my phone waking up that easy. as far as the notifications. that is the one thing I personally think apple got right. there are a couple other things that are the same on android, like answering a call, you can use the two finger double tap to answer, and ending the call as well. the two finger double tap can also pause your music too in most apps if I am not mistaken. if you have questions. you can ask, and as long as I know the answers, I will help you as much as I can.
@JamminJerry My biggest struggle right now is that explore by touch just completely stops working every 30 minutes or so. I have to lock the phone and unlock it again to make it start working. It’s infuriating. I can’t even type when it happens because only flick works. That and talk back is just! So! Slow! 1.5 seconds to scroll a list. Lag when typing. Etc. I thought Google tts was the issue, so I switched to espeak. No change. Voiceover is faster on my iPhone 8. What can I do to make talk back actually responsive? Because this is killing me.
@fastfinge I do get what you mean that voiceover is more responsive. I use the alix voice, and even that 900 meg voice is still more responsive than anything on android. yes eloquence, ESpeak, vocalizer, and things like that are more responsive than the google tts any day, but eloquence you can't even get or put on more modorn phones sadly. but I mean, I could record a demo for you to show you that my stuff isn't even that slow when I do things. that is just crazy!
@fastfinge@JamminJerry I have all sound and haptic feedback off, sounds definitely slow it, also turn down verbosity at least 〃 and make sure reduce window announcement delay is on under advanced in talkback, and that handle gestures in talkback is off, if you're not using gesture nav, under developer settings in talkback advanced.
@dhamlinmusic@fastfinge@JamminJerry Thanks for the handle gestures tip. Even though I use TB for around 5 months now this post has been helpful. Just completely cutting the vibration now feels kinda weird but I can get along with no sounds. Would like though if they had it like VoiceOver and you could select which sounds you wanna hear. I don't need constant clicking when focusing on something else, but for a few things it would be useful.
