iOS and iPadOS

Using IOS 16 and voiceover. If I ask Siri for todays baseball schedule and want to scroll through them one at a time, instead of Siri reading them all, I can no longer go from one game to another using a one finger swipe left or right gesture.

Hey everyone,

I have an iPhone 6 and just recently my Siri has started saying before asking for the next step, such as you say “send a text” before asking who you want to send it to she says “sorry there was a problem with the App” - If anyone knows how to fix this issue please comment. Thank you!

Hi all. i have an iPhone8+ and a strange issue. When I have my BARD app open, I mute sounds and turn off speech as to eliminate notifications. Anyway all of a sudden I hear this phrase, Siri search. It happens when I press home as it to get to the messages. If I swipe left, it says search field, but when i double tap nothing happens. I then see dictate, the messages, calendar, blah blah. so is there a way of getting rid of it? It makes me nuts. Thanks for any help. Oh and the version is 13.5

I use Siri shortcuts for mostly music. I have multiple stations with in either Tunein or Pandora. When I play a Tunein station with Siri and give it the phrase, it plays it. However, when I play another Tunein station that I gave another phrase too, it plays the station that I just played instead of what station I want it to play. I'm running the latest version of iOS. Help, please!

About this time last Year, Thomas Donville produced some excellent podcasts about SIRI Shortcuts. I listened, became enthralled and, as a programmer forced to retire through sight loss, got a new, fantastic lease of life. Since then, I have written over 200 shortcuts and, although challenging, I have enjoyed it. The effort involved, as I am totally blind, has been tremendous and I have worked many 20-hour days. However, since IOS 13 came out, shortcuts, for me, is broken! There are lots of bugs in the app with Voice Over not reading page elements.

What Siri shortcuts are available for use witht the Voice Dream Reader app? Also, is it possible to create custom shortcuts for performing functions within the app?

thanks.

Hi Everybody,

Just starting to look at iOS12 and WatchOS5 and something which might be useful for Weather Gods is Siri Shortcuts.

These are new to iOS12 and allow a developer to let Siri know about a shortcut.

For example, if you checked the weather every day at 7 am for New York using Weather Gods then we would let Siri know about this. Eventually or maybe quite quickly, Siri will start to suggest this as a shortcut and this would appear on the lock screen at 7 am or on the Siri watch face.

Hello everybody and have a great week.
Since update to iOS 14.5 from 13.4, Siri most of the time stops answering mid sentence. I often use Siri to calculate numbers and after the first number it stops. I even changed from American English to British English to see if that would make a difference, but nothing works. I have great connection when I tried it so it's not a matter of wireless connectivity.
Also searched the forum but found nothing relevant for iOS 14
Any help?
Thank you in advance and have a great day.

I have encountered what appears to be a bug when activating Seri. Occasionally, when I hold down the home button to activate, Seri will start and immediately end. I am using an iPhone 6 running IOS 8.0.2.

The only way I found to fix the bug was to reboot my iPhone.

Has anyone else experienced this?

Hi! Ever since updating to iOS 11, my Siri voice is stuck in low quality. That is, I believe it was like this on my iPhone 7 after updating too, but then I switched to a new iPhone 8 that of course came preinstalled with iOS 11, so don't take my word for it! :)
Anyway, on my iPhone 8, now running iOS 11.0.3, the Siri voice is still low quality, and it seems like nothing I can think of will fix it.

Hello
A while ago some IOS users complain about the Siri English UK female voice and the pronounciation issue she has when saying: "No unread emails." To many of us it sounds like the poor lassie has the hick ups. The problem was solved after IOS 12.2, but appears again after installing IOS 12.3. Here is what you can do. It works for me and I hope it works for all users who prefer using Siri UK English female:

One of the people whom I support told me that she could no longer use Siri to send email from her iPhone 8 with iOS 14. I tried on my iPhone SE with iOS 15.0 and the response from Siri was "sorry, I can't help with that'. Subsequently, I've had the same response on a phone running iOS 12. If this is a deliberate feature removal, it's certainly a loss to some users with sight loss who find it a convenient way to send a brief email.

Hi all.

I don't know if this has been posted before, but I haven't seen it anywhere and a search had no results. Siri is cutting off in the middle of an swer. Say I asked it which states bordered New Hampshire.
"Here's what I found out from Worldatlas.com, New Hampshire shares a border with mas..."

It doesn't always happen, but it is frequent. Is there something I have to do, or should I report it?

Hi everyone, Today I upgraded from an iPhone 4 to a 5C, so this is my first device with Siri. I am finding that her voice sounds more like a computer than the high quality one in iOS 7. In other words, it sounds like it did prior to iOS 7. Here's what I've done so far to try to get the high quality voice: 1. Restarted Siri, and 2. Rebooted my phone. Does anyone have ideas on why I'm getting a computer sounding Siri? Thanks

Hi,
ok, if you tell voice over to read the word, "hmm" (i found it on whats app) siri us english male default, not enhanced, will read it with a slower speed than default. if it only read the "hmm" with slower speeds, that is understandable, but this voice also reads the things that is after the word "hmm" with the slower rate. Sorry for bad english and sorry if offtopic or duplicated. thanks.

Hi.

I have iOS13 installed and have noticed that I can't use the new natural Siri voice with voiceover. Any tips on how you can use it with voiceover, or is their something wrong? Thanks. I really am looking forward to using this voice.
