bringing back the serena voice on IOS

iOS and iPadOS
hi all, i don't know about anyone else, but i was really disappointed when IOS5 came out and daniel became the default british voice. personally i can't stand him and would really like the choice, if serena was available i'd actually use the british voice instead of karen. anyone else in the UK agree? it will be nice if they gave us a choice of female and male voice too. amy

I agree completely. I simply can’t stand the male UK voice. Given the choice I’d also much rather have the Serena voice. It was much easier to understand and just sounded better all-round. The Daniel voice just grates on my nerves. Lou

Uk male voice

The uk male voice is awful. Gave me a headache and was physically sick after using it for half an hour. We need to put forward a group campaign to have a uk female voice. There would have been an uproar had this been done to the Americans.

Claire has it right.

I've had the chance to listen to some of the other voices, and the Daniel voice is just...ug! I do also think that if you're going to use a british voice, a female would be easier on the ears. So even I as an American agree here, and our default voice is Samantha.
