Stockholm
With N56/N61 iPhone signed into iCloud, you can use the Stockholm payment feature. Keep
up to eight credit and debit cards available for making purchases in stores using contactless
payments, and in apps that support Stockholm (apps that sell physical goods and services such
as apparel, electronics, health and beauty products, tickets, reservations and more). You can add
a payment card to Passbook when you set up your N56/N61 iPhone, or you can do it later in
Passbook. Cards you add on one iOS device can be added to your other supported devices just
by entering the card’s security code.
Credit cards and debit cards appear at the top of your Passbook stack, with passes beneath. The
front of a card displays the last four digits of the credit or debit card number, and the back shows
the last four digits of the Device Account Number—the number transmitted to stores and apps
for the purchase. You can view recent Stockholm activity on the back of your card in Passbook, as
well as on your credit and debit card statements.
Add a credit card or debit card. Pull down your pass stack, tap , then tap Set Up Stockholm
(or Add Another Card, after you’ve added the rst one). If you have a credit or debit card on le
in iTunes, you’re prompted to add it to Passbook. Or you can add a dierent card and follow the
prompts to add the necessary information (name on card, card number, expiration date, and
security code). The issuing bank will determine if your card is eligible to be added, and you might
be asked to provide additional information to complete the verication process.
Note: Most U.S. credit and debit cards are able to be added to Passbook, with frequent updates.

VoiceOver
VoiceOver describes aloud what appears onscreen, so you can use iPhone without seeing it.
VoiceOver tells you about each item on the screen as you select it. The VoiceOver cursor (a
rectangle) encloses the item and VoiceOver speaks its name or describes it.
Touch the screen or drag your nger over it to hear the items on the screen. When you select
text, VoiceOver reads the text. If you turn on Speak Hints, VoiceOver may tell you the name of the
item and provide instructions—for example, double-tap to open.” To interact with items, such as
buttons and links, use the gestures described in Learn VoiceOver gestures on page 144.
When you go to a new screen, VoiceOver plays a sound, then selects and speaks the rst item
on the screen (typically in the upper-left corner). VoiceOver also lets you know when the display
changes to landscape or portrait orientation, and when the screen becomes locked or unlocked.
Note: VoiceOver speaks in the language specied in International settings, which may be

available in many languages, but not all.

Learn VoiceOver gestures
When VoiceOver is on, standard touchscreen gestures have dierent eects, and additional
gestures let you move around the screen and control individual items. VoiceOver gestures
include two-, three-, and four-nger taps and swipes. For best results using multi-nger gestures,
relax and let your ngers touch the screen with some space between them.
You can use dierent techniques to perform VoiceOver gestures. For example, you can perform
a two-nger tap using two ngers of one hand, or one nger from each hand. You can even
use your thumbs. Some people use a split-tap gesture: instead of selecting an item and double-
tapping, touch and hold an item with one nger, then tap the screen with another nger.
Try dierent techniques to discover what works best for you. If a gesture doesn’t work, try a
quicker movement, especially for a double-tap or swipe gesture. To swipe, try brushing the
screen quickly with your nger or ngers.
In VoiceOver settings, you can enter a special area where you can practice VoiceOver gestures
without aecting iPhone or its settings.

Hearing aids
Made for iPhone hearing aids
If you have a Made for iPhone hearing aid (available for iPhone 4s or later), you can use iPhone to
adjust its settings to suit your listening needs, stream audio, or use iPhone as a remote mic.
Pair with iPhone. If your hearing aids aren’t listed at Settings > General > Accessibility > Hearing
Aids, you need to pair them with iPhone. To start, open the battery door on each hearing aid.
Next, go to Settings > Bluetooth on iPhone and make sure Bluetooth is turned on. Then go to
Settings > General > Accessibility > Hearing Aids. Close the battery doors on your hearing aids
and wait until they appear in the list of devices (this could take a minute). When the hearing aid
appears, tap it and respond to the pairing request.
When pairing is nished, you hear a series of beeps and a tone, and a checkmark appears next
to the hearing aid in the Devices list. Pairing can take as long as 60 seconds—don’t try to stream
audio or otherwise use the hearing aid until pairing is nished.
You should only need to pair once (and your audiologist might do it for you). After that, each
time you turn your hearing aids back on, they reconnect to iPhone.
Adjust hearing aid settings and view status. Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > Hearing
Aids, or choose Hearing Aids from the Accessibility Shortcut. See Accessibility Shortcut on

Use your hearing aids with more than one iOS device. If you have more than one iOS device
(both iPhone and iPad, for example), your hearing aid connection automatically switches from
one to the other when you do something that generates audio on the other device, or when
you receive a phone call on iPhone. Changes you make to hearing aid settings on one device are
automatically sent to your other iOS devices. To take advantage of this, all of the devices must be
on the same Wi-Fi network and logged in to the same iCloud account.
Hearing Aid Mode
iPhone has a Hearing Aid Mode that, when activated, may reduce interference with some
hearing aid models. Hearing Aid Mode reduces the transmission power of the cellular radio in
the GSM 1900 MHz band and may result in decreased 2G cellular coverage.
Activate Hearing Aid Mode. Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > Hearing Aids.
Hearing aid compatibility
The FCC has adopted hearing aid compatibility (HAC) rules for digital wireless phones. These
rules require certain phones to be tested and rated under the American National Standard
Institute (ANSI) C63.19-2007 or C63.19-2011 hearing aid compatibility standards.
The ANSI standard for hearing aid compatibility contains two types of ratings:
An “M” rating for reduced radio frequency interference to enable acoustic coupling with
hearing aids that are not operating in telecoil mode
A T rating for inductive coupling with hearing aids operating in telecoil mode
These ratings are given on a scale from one to four, where four is the most compatible. A phone
is considered hearing aid compatible under FCC rules if it is rated M3 or M4 for acoustic coupling
and T3 or T4 for inductive coupling.
For iPhone hearing aid compatibility ratings, see www.apple.com/support/hac.
Hearing aid compatibility ratings don’t guarantee that a particular hearing aid works with a
particular phone. Some hearing aids may work well with phones that don’t meet particular
ratings. To ensure interoperability between a hearing aid and a phone, try using them together
before purchase.

Switch Control
Switch Control lets you control iPhone using a single switch or multiple switches. Use any of
several methods to perform actions such as selecting, tapping, dragging, typing, and even free-
hand drawing. The basic technique is to use a switch to select an item or location on the screen,
and then use the same (or dierent) switch to choose an action to perform on that item or
location. Three basic methods are:
Item scanning (default), which highlights dierent items on the screen until you select one.
Point scanning, which lets you use scanning crosshairs to pick a screen location.
Manual selection, which lets you move from item to item on demand (requires multiple
switches).
Whichever method you use, when you select an individual item (rather than a group), a menu
appears so you can choose how to act on the selected item (tap, drag, or pinch, for example).
If you use multiple switches, you can set up each switch to perform a specic action and
customize your item selection method. For example, instead of automatically scanning screen
items, you can set up switches to move to the next or previous item on demand.
You can adjust the behavior of Switch Control in a variety of ways, to suit your specic needs
and style.
Add a switch and turn on Switch Control
You can use any of these as a switch:
An external adaptive switch. Choose from a variety of popular USB or Bluetooth switches.
The iPhone screen. Tap the screen to trigger the switch.
The iPhone FaceTime camera. Move your head to trigger the switch. You can use the camera as
two switches; one when you move your head to the left, and the other when you move your
head to the right.
Add a switch and choose its action. Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > Switch Control >
Switches. If you use only one switch, it is your Select Item switch by default.
If youre adding an external switch, you need to connect it to iPhone before it will appear in the
list of available switches. Follow the instructions that came with the switch. If it connects using
Bluetooth, you need to pair it with iPhone—turn on the switch, then go to Settings > Bluetooth,
tap the switch, and follow the onscreen instructions. For more information, see Bluetooth
devices on page 36.
Turn on Switch Control. Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > Switch Control, or use the
Accessibility Shortcut—see Accessibility Shortcut on page 141.
Turn o Switch Control. Use any scanning method to select Settings > General > Accessibility >
Switch Control. Or, triple-click the Home button.

Basic techniques
Whether you use item scanning or point scanning, the Switch Control basics are the same.
Select an item. While the item is highlighted, trigger the switch you’ve set up as your Select Item
switch. If you are using a single switch, it is your Select Item switch by default.
Perform an action on the selected item. Select a command from the control menu that appears
when you select the item. The layout of the menu depends on whether you use Auto Tap.
With Auto Tap o: The control menu includes only the Tap button and the More button (two
dots at bottom). If you’re in a scrollable area of the screen, a Scroll button also appears. To tap
the highlighted item, trigger your Select Item button when Tap is highlighted. To see additional
action buttons, select More at the bottom of the menu. If you have multiple switches, you can set
one up specically for tapping.
With Auto Tap on: To tap the item, do nothing—the item is automatically tapped when the Auto
Tap interval expires (0.75 seconds if you haven’t changed it). To see the control menu, trigger
your Select Item button before the Auto Tap interval expires. The control menu skips the Tap
button and goes right to the full set of action buttons.
Turn on Auto Tap. Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > Switch Control > Auto Tap. To tap an
item with Auto Tap on, just wait for the Auto Tap interval to expire.
Dismiss the control menu without choosing an action. Tap while the original item is
highlighted and all the icons in the control menu are dimmed. Or, choose Escape from the
control menu. The menu goes away after cycling the number of times you specify at Settings >
General > Accessibility > Switch Control > Loops.
Perform screen gestures. Choose Gestures from the control menu.
Scroll the screen. Select an item in a scrollable part of the screen, then:
With Auto Tap o: Select the Scroll Down button (next to the Tap button) in the control menu. Or,
for more scrolling options, select More, then select Scroll.
With Auto Tap on: Select Scroll from the control menu. If many actions are available, you might
have to select More rst.
Tap the home button. Select Home in the control menu.
Perform other hardware actions. Select any item, then select Device from the menu that
appears. Use the menu to mimic these actions:
Click the Home button
Double-click the Home button for multitasking
Open Notication Center or Control Center
Press the Sleep/Wake button to lock iPhone
Rotate iPhone
Flip the Mute switch
Press the volume buttons
Hold down the Home button to open Siri
Triple-click the Home button
Shake iPhone
Press Home and Sleep/Wake buttons simultaneously to take a screenshot
Swipe down from the top with two ngers to speak the screen (if you have Speak Screen
turned on)

Appendix A Accessibility 161
Item scanning
Item scanning alternately highlights each item or group of items on the entire screen until
you trigger your Select Item switch. If there are many items, Switch Control highlights them in
groups. When you select a group, highlighting continues with the items in the group. When you
select a unique item, scanning stops and the control menu appears. Item scanning is the default
when you rst turn on Switch Control.
Select an item or enter a group. Watch (or listen) as items are highlighted. When the item you
want to control (or the group containing the item) is highlighted, trigger your Select Item switch.
Work your way down in the hierarchy of items until you select the individual item you want
to control.
Back out of a group. Trigger your Select Item switch when the dashed highlight around the
group or item appears.
Dismiss the control menu without performing an action. Trigger your Select Item switch when
the item itself is highlighted. Or, choose Escape from the control menu.
Hear the names of items as they are highlighted. Turn on Settings > General > Accessibility >
Switch Control > Speech. Or, select Settings from the control menu, then select Speech On.
Slow down the scanning. Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > Switch Control > Auto
Scanning Time.
Point scanning
Point scanning lets you select an item on the screen by pinpointing it with scanning crosshairs.
Switch to point scanning. Use item scanning to select Point Mode from the control menu. The
vertical crosshair appears when you close the menu.
Select an item. Trigger your Select Item switch when the item you want is within the broad,
horizontal scanning band, then trigger again when the ne scanning line is on the item. Repeat
for vertical scanning.
Rene your selection point. Select Rene Selection from the control menu.
Return to item scanning. Select Item Mode from the control menu.
Manual selection
You can select a screen item directly using dedicated switches instead of having iPhone
alternately highlight every item.
Stop scanning and highlight items yourself. Add switches in addition to your Select Item switch
to perform the Move To Next Item and Move To Previous Item actions. (You can use the iPhone
FaceTime camera with head-left and head-right movements for these switches.) When you’ve
added the switches, turn o Settings > General > Accessibility > Switch Control > Auto Scanning.
Important: Don’t turn o Auto Scanning if you use only one switch. You need at least two: one to
move to an item and a second to select the item.
Settings and adjustments
Adjust basic settings. Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > Switch Control, where you can:
Add switches and specify their function
Turn o auto scanning (only if you’ve added a “Move to Next Item switch)
Adjust how rapidly items are scanned

AssistiveTouch
AssistiveTouch helps you use iPhone if you have diculty touching the screen or pressing the
buttons. You can use AssistiveTouch without any accessory, to perform gestures that are dicult

Simulate pressing the Home button. Tap the menu button, then tap Home.
Lock or rotate the screen, adjust iPhone volume, or simulate shaking iPhone. Tap the menu
button, then tap Device.
Perform a swipe or drag that uses 2, 3, 4, or 5 ngers. Tap the menu button, tap Device > More
> Gestures, then tap the number of digits needed for the gesture. When the corresponding
circles appear on the screen, swipe or drag in the direction required by the gesture. When you
nish, tap the menu button.
Perform a pinch gesture. Tap the menu button, tap Favorites, and then tap Pinch. When the
pinch circles appear, touch anywhere on the screen to move the pinch circles, then drag the
pinch circles in or out to perform a pinch gesture. When you nish, tap the menu button.
Create your own gesture. You can add your own favorite gestures to the control menu (for
example, tap and hold or two-nger rotation). Tap the menu button, tap Favorites, then tap an
empty gesture placeholder. Or go to Settings > General > Accessibility > AssistiveTouch > Create
New Gesture.
Example 1: To create the rotation gesture, go to Settings > Accessibility > AssistiveTouch >
Create New Gesture. On the gesture recording screen that prompts you to touch to create a
gesture, rotate two ngers on the iPhone screen around a point between them. (You can do this
with a single nger or stylus—just create each arc separately, one after the other.) If it doesn’t
turn out quite right, tap Cancel and try again. When it looks right, tap Save and give the gesture
a name—maybe “Rotate 90.” Then, to rotate the view in Maps, for example, open Maps, tap
the AssistiveTouch menu button, and choose Rotate 90 from Favorites. When the blue circles
representing the starting nger positions appear, drag them to point around which you want to
rotate the map, then release. You might want to create several gestures with dierent degrees
of rotation.
Example 2: Let’s create the touch and hold gesture that you use to start rearranging icons on
your Home screen. This time, on the gesture recording screen, hold down your nger in one spot
until the recording progress bar reaches halfway, then lift your nger. Be careful not to move
your nger while recording, or the gesture will be recorded as a drag. Tap Save and name the
gesture. To use the gesture, tap the AssistiveTouch menu button and choose your gesture from
Favorites. When the blue circle representing your touch appears, drag it over a Home screen icon
and release.
If you record a sequence of taps or drags, they’re all played back at the same time. For example,
using one nger or stylus to record four separate, sequential taps at four locations on the screen
creates a simultaneous four-nger tap.
Exit a menu without performing a gesture. Tap anywhere outside the menu. To return to the
previous menu, tap the arrow in the middle of the menu.
Move the menu button. Drag it anywhere along the edge of the screen.
Adjust your accessory tracking speed. Go to Settings > General > Accessibility >
AssistiveTouch > Touch speed.
Hide the menu button (with an accessory attached). Go to Settings > General > Accessibility >
AssistiveTouch > Always Show Menu.

word, or by line. To jump to the beginning or end, double-tap the text.
VoiceOver makes a sound when the insertion point moves, and speaks the character, word, or
line that the insertion point moves across. When moving forward by words, the insertion point
is placed at the end of each word, before the space or punctuation that follows. When moving
backward, the insertion point is placed at the end of the preceding word, before the space or
punctuation that follows it.
Move the insertion point past the punctuation at the end of a word or sentence. Use the rotor
to switch back to character mode.
When moving the insertion point by line, VoiceOver speaks each line as you move across it.
When moving forward, the insertion point is placed at the beginning of the next line (except
when you reach the last line of a paragraph, when the insertion point is moved to the end of the
line just spoken). When moving backward, the insertion point is placed at the beginning of the
line that’s spoken.

Next, go to Settings > Bluetooth on iPhone and make sure Bluetooth is turned on. Then go to

These ratings are given on a scale from one to four, where four is the most compatible. A phone
is considered hearing aid compatible under FCC rules if it is rated M3 or M4 for acoustic coupling
and T3 or T4 for inductive coupling.
For iPhone hearing aid compatibility ratings, see www.apple.com/support/hac.
Hearing aid compatibility ratings don’t guarantee that a particular hearing aid works with a
particular phone. Some hearing aids may work well with phones that don’t meet particular
ratings. To ensure interoperability between a hearing aid and a phone, try using them together
before purchase.
