iOS and iPadOS

Hello
I have bin using the Alex voice for a few years and it’s my favorit voice, but in 16.5 I keep loosing speech and it’s so annoying
So, what other voices do you all like?
Thanks

I use espeak and IOS 16.4.1…

I use espeak and IOS 16.4.1 and I have no issues with crashes and such things.

I like Tom fairly well.

Since I use the same voice on Jaws, I either go for Tom, or since it is somewhat downgraded in the new version, I'll use Samantha instead.

Eloquence

I use Eloquence Reed. I still get the crashes, but only once or twice a day.

Samantha’s working fine.

The default, Samantha voice is working OK no crashes. I would say this will probably be resolved in iOS 17.

Zoey enhansed

I've switched between Ava premium and Zoey enhansed. I prefer Zoey because she pronounces more clearly.

Thanks, I am using Espeak and it’s not my favorit but it hasn’t crashed
I tried Ava inhentsd but that made it wors, with that voice VO would restart and say voiceover on in the middel of reading something, I was downloading Espeak when it happend, device is 32GB iPad 7 on iPadOS 16.5
