If you have a multi-touch enabled trackpad and have VoiceOver enabled, you can use gestures to navigate to, control, and enter VoiceOver commands on the screen.

To use VoiceOver gestures, turn on Trackpad Commander by pressing and holding the Control and Option keys (VO keys) while rotating two fingers clockwise on the trackpad, or by selecting the appropriate option in VoiceOver Utility. Once enabled, you can use a set of standard VoiceOver gestures, as well as customize other gestures by assigning VoiceOver commands to them.

In VoiceOver gestures, they include moving or swiping fingers on the trackpad surface, touching, flicking, or rotating one or more fingers on the trackpad surface. Various techniques can be used to perform the gesture. For example, you can touch with two fingers of one hand or both hands. Try different tricks and choose the one that works best for you. You can use the keyboard help to practice standard and custom gestures, and to remember the operations they perform.

As you move the VoiceOver cursor, the names of the items the VoiceOver cursor points to are spoken, and a sound effect plays when it detects empty space on the screen. Thus, when moving the cursor on the screen, you will know the location of objects on the screen.

Touching the trackpad with your fingers is equivalent to touching part of the screen. The trackpad represents the window or area of ​​the screen where the VoiceOver cursor is located. When you move your finger across the trackpad surface, the VoiceOver cursor moves only within that window or area. For example, if the cursor is in the Mail toolbar area, the trackpad represents the Mail toolbar. When you move your finger across the trackpad surface, the VoiceOver cursor moves only within the Mail toolbar. Because the trackpad only represents a certain area and not the entire screen, it's impossible to accidentally navigate to other areas or windows of other programs.

To make it easier to collaborate with visually impaired users, VoiceOver highlights the screen area you're working on while shading the rest of the screen. The transparency for this effect is adjusted in the Touch panel of the VoiceOver Utility. Other collaboration features, such as captioning and Braille panels, can be used simultaneously with VoiceOver gestures.

To disable Trackpad Commander and stop using VoiceOver gestures, press and hold the Control and Option keys while rotating two fingers counterclockwise on the trackpad, or select the appropriate option in VoiceOver Utility.

To change the voice in Skype, you will have to download a small free program called Skype Voice Changer. It weighs about a megabyte, unfortunately, it is in English, although the interface is quite simple, that even without knowledge of the language, you can freely use it.

And now I'll tell you a little how to use skype voice changer because he figured it out for 15 minutes how to hear the voice changed by skype voice changer.

If you have already downloaded and installed Skype Voice Changer, then read on.

Setting up Skype Voice Changer

Click on the Skype icon in the upper left corner of the program. A window appears with confirmation of access, click "Give access".

Click on the green button with a white plus sign Add Effect (or add an effect). And select the effects that we want to add to your voice, you can add all at once).

But this is of no use, since it is unlikely that any of the readers understands all these parameters. And it would be easier to tune the program and hear the voice at the same time.

How to hear your voice on skype

I did not find any options other than calling the Echo / Sound Test Service, but this is definitely not suitable for setting up Skype Voice Changer. And the question of how to change your voice and hear it at the same time remained unresolved.

But, nevertheless, there is another way provided by the program itself. We are looking for the Sound Recorder program on our computer, this is a standard program and, in my opinion, it is on all windows, even on very old ones. Open the Sound Recorder ( Start -> Programs -> Accessories) and record your voice, two or three minutes will be enough.

To access this function, press the menu button. If sync is enabled (as indicated by the icon next to the description), @Voice will ask you for your login details and permission to access your Dropbox account, after which all Android devices that have the @Voice app installed and this feature is enabled will be synced. This includes the articles in the reading list and the exact place where you stopped reading so that you can then continue reading from the same point on the same or another device.

The Dropbox folder can also be accessed from a desktop computer. She will be located at Your Dropbox folder - Apps - @Voice Aloud Reader. This folder will contain your saved articles that you can manage (for example, delete or rename). You can also copy other text or HTML files to this folder for further reading/listening in @Voice. For example, if you want to save a web page from the Firefox browser on a desktop computer, select the File menu (or if the menu is hidden, click the Firefox button at the top), then select Save As, navigate to the folder Dropbox\Apps\@Voice Aloud Reader, select the "File type: Web page, HTML only" option at the bottom and click the "Save" button. Now, when you return to your Android device with @Voice installed and Dropbox sync enabled, you will find that this article has been added to your reading list.

The @Voice settings menu also has an additional Dropbox configuration. You can leave syncing with Dropbox always active so that it happens as soon as you save or change your reading list, or you can sync on demand.

Voice text input on Android is convenient even when typing SMS, and if you need to type large amounts of text a day or deal with business issues in parallel with other work duties, then this feature will become simply indispensable.

The Android OS has a standard feature for dictating words by voice, which can be enabled in the settings without downloading additional applications. The system will automatically add a microphone icon to the electronic keyboard, so you can use it whenever you need.

If you no longer need the enabled input, and you want to disable it, select the "Disable" button in the same menu or uncheck the corresponding item.

How to use voice input

We have already figured out how to enable this feature, now we need to understand how to use it. It will be available in almost all menus and applications in which you can use the electronic keyboard.

1. To start dictating text, tap on the text screen or on a part of the text that has already been entered. The standard electronic keyboard will be displayed.
2. Click on the microphone icon on the main screen, or go to the symbol layout if you moved the microphone key there during setup.
3. The screen will display a menu for recording your voice and the inscription: “Speak”. Dictate the desired text into the smartphone's microphone, and it will automatically convert the voice to text.

Punctuation marks should be pronounced with the words: “Question mark”, “Comma”, “Point”. Try to speak clearly, otherwise the program may misunderstand your words, and accordingly convert them into similar ones.

What settings are available with Android voice recognition

You can set up standard voice input on Android in the "Language and input" menu, which can be accessed through "Settings", or by clicking on the "gear" settings directly in the menu that appeared after pressing the microphone (usually the settings button is located to the left of the word "Speak").

Set up speech recognition. Here you can do the following:

• Select language. Recognition is also available offline, but by default you will have only Russian (or Russian + English) installed. For other languages, the function will work either only when, or when you download the desired languages. You can download the necessary language packs in the language and input settings menu by clicking on "Offline speech recognition".
• Set up “OK Google” recognition. After setting this item, you will be able to use the search engine manager with Google open only by saying "OK Google". And then you need to say what you need to find in the search engine.
• Enable the ability to control voice from a wired headset or Bluetooth devices.
• Set up obscene word recognition. The program automatically turns on the "Hide recognized obscene words" item.
• Turn on or turn off the sound of results in the standard mode or in the mode of the connected headset.
