Need help with Scrivener for iOS

iOS and iPadOS
I recently bought scrivener for iOS to use on my iPad and I have a couple of questions.
First, I'm having some trouble getting through the tutorial. Once I open a topic, VO only reads to a certain point then focus seems to jump to the next topic without finishing all the text in the original topic. I know there is more text because I can slide my finger around the screen and hear it, but there isn't any way to effectively navigate to it and get VO to read it.
Second question. I read or heard somewhere that it's possible to upload my work to dropbox from within scrivener, but I can't figure out how to do that.
I guess if I could complete the tutorial I would figure this out, but alas, the two issues are related.
Any help is appreciated.

I have an iPhone, but I can try to help you
What section are you on?
What I did with the tutorial, since it's sort of interactive, was double-tap on the edit field and use the rotor to go line by line. Although I have an iPhone rather than an iPad, I can try to help you if you can tell me what section you're on.
To sync with Dropbox, go to iOS settings, then to Scrivener, which should be towards the bottom, then go to "syncing and sharing, and it's right there. Let me know if you need more help.
You can also add your dropbox
You can also add your dropbox account just by clicking the first button, either add or sink and then choosing dropbox in the resulting dialogue. I was able to just have vo read the full text of the tutorial by swiping to it. No double tapping required.
