Screen reader gestures and keyboard shortcuts Overview Use these gestures to navigate and interact with devices when VoiceOver (iOS) is enabled. The gestures shown during a session automatically reflect the platform of the connected device. During a manual session, a reference modal is available to show supported gestures and keyboard shortcuts. On Windows computers, use the Windows key for keyboard shortcuts with CMD (command) key.
