Use VoiceOver to preview comments and track changes in Pages on iPhone
You can use VoiceOver to read annotations made by other people collaborating on a document. Annotations are separated by VoiceOver into three groups: comments, highlights and tracked changes. VoiceOver reads comments and identifies the person who made the comment, describes highlights (including the colour of the highlight), and when you select a tracked change, VoiceOver says whether a potential change is an addition or deletion, and lets you preview the change before you accept it.
Preview highlights, comments and tracked changes
Go to the Pages app
on your iPhone.Open a document, open the VoiceOver rotor, then select Highlights, Comments or Tracked Changes.
Swipe up or down to navigate between the items that apply to that menu (for example, to navigate between each set of highlighted text).
As you swipe, VoiceOver moves focus to the annotation’s position within the document.
Preview text including tracked changes
You can use the “Preview Change” action to preview the result of a tracked change before you accept or reject it. When you choose this action, VoiceOver speaks the text as it would appear if the tracked change was accepted. This action is available when you have selected a tracked change in the document body.
Go to the Pages app
on your iPhone.Open a document, open the VoiceOver rotor, then select the Actions setting.
Swipe up or down until “Preview Change” is selected, then double tap to preview the change.
