I am trying to support a blind person who I am working with, he has a ip4s. Can I make voiceover read the whole sreen from top to bottom in one go or does he have to run his finger down the screen? Cheers

I would recommend that he download an app called Looktel Voiceover Getting Started. You can find more information about it here. http://www.applevis.com/apps/ios/reference/looktel-voiceover-tutorial
Also, if you swipe down with two fingers, Voiceover will read from the point on the screen where the cursor is to the bottom of the screen or document.

You should let him know about Apple vis so that he can post his own questions to be answered. There are many resources that this sight provides, especially for new users, I believe there is even a special section for them.
