Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

How do I click on things?

  • Blink to click on a button or a selected item. A button animation and sound will indicate if a button has been pressed.

  • To click anywhere on a page even when there is no selection: blink once and a targeting cursor will appear at the current point. Blink on it again to click on that point.

How do I control the cursor?

  • The cursor is controlled through head movement, not eye gaze. For example: pointing your nose up then down will translate into vertical cursor movement and turning your head right then left will cause horizontal cursor movement.

What devices support Jabberwocky?

  • Jabberwocky runs on most iOS devices, but Head Tracking functionality is only available on iOS devices that support Face ID (as of 2019-6-19 this includes iPhone X series phones and 2018 iPad Pros). Also due to screen size limitations, iPads are the only devices that include multiple prediction rows.

How do I change the voice?

  • In the Settings App:

    • For iOS 12 and below go to General > Accessibility > Speech > Voices. Select English (or your phone’s default language) and try a different voice from the available options.

    • For iOS 13 go to Accessibility > Spoken Content > Voices. Select English (or your phone’s default language) and try a different voice from the available options.

    • NOTE: Jabberwocky uses your phone’s default language, so voices selected from other languages will not work. For example, changing from English (US) to English (UK) will not work. The new voice should be working immediately in the app. And don’t forget to try enhanced quality voices! They are great.

How do I change the keyboard layout?

  • Jabberwocky supports ABC and QWERTY keyboard layouts. Rotating the device allows you to switch between the two different keyboard layouts.
