Okay, I only have an iPhone and therefore have no idea on MacOS. So we once had these old compact Siri voices with their premium variants available for download. The first iOS version to have included them must be 8 or 9; don't really remember for sure. And then they were replaced with larger, more realistic but less responsive counterparts, which in turn, as far as I know, have recently been replaced with much smaller AI-powered versions.

When Voiceover is on I always have trouble getting the onscreen keyboard to appear. I don't have this problem in other text entering places, I just tap and the keyboard comes up. But when I open a Note item I have to tap and tap and tap. Often triggering some kind of editing function like paste. Is there a specific gesture for summoning the keyboard in Notes?

Hi
Have some here in this forum tried the app called Play-Fi with VoiceOver, and can tell me if the app is accessible with VoiceOver or not?
With the app you among other things can setup some amplifiers and stream music etc. via the app.
Thanks in advance for your answer, and have a nice day.
Regards,
Anders

I was talking to a friend Stephen Giggar some of you might remember him from the talks days. He said you might be able to customize what voice over does and doesn't speak. I'm posting this example to show what can be done with the Voiceover dictionary.
On the Status bar it says cellular 3 of 3 bars signal strength I wanted to change this so I did this:
Put in in the phrase box

I have an iPhone 10 with the latest version of iOS 16, I have an iPhone 12 with the latest version of iOS 16, I have an iPad mini 6, with the latest version of iPadOS 16, you will say that A possible problem is that the devices are not updated to iOS 17 .But I also have an iPhone 15 pro and the problem persists.

Hello,
I have an iPhone 13, but when I'm on a phone call, voiceover speaks when a notification comes when the phone is close to my ears and I'm speaking through the speakerphone.
On my old iPhone se2, voiceover used to stop speaking when I got the phone close to my ear.
Is there any fix for this problem? It gets a bit annoying and destracting when I'm on a call.

I use distopia a lot and have noticed that Voiceover is able to read texts in photos with pretty great results.
I used to use Seeing AI but it kind of broke.
You can also have Voiceover read text on an image in your photos app, it's great!

Has anyone else noticed this? The ringer on my 4S is considerably quieter than it was. A friend of mine who works for Apple has noticed it, and I have noticed it too when I've been on the train with other iPhone users and have been able to hear their iPhones ringing, but not my own. I have slept through the iPhone's ringer three times since updating, and that was never the case before in over three years as an iPhone user. I've done all the really obvious things to save embarrassment, including checking the volume of the ringer and alerts, and it's all as it should be.

If you use the RBC (Royal Bank of Canada) online app they have a new mandatory identity verification requirement for etransferring an amount of money. For me it is$1500. The app requires you to enter your bank card pin on a keyboard which is unusable with Voiceover. This is in addition to the finger print verification I just used to sign into the app. Etransferring money from a web browser is still accessible, only requiring me to sign into the app and review the transfer, not enter the inaccessible pin.

My Samantha seems to have a cold or Laryngitis. I guess the upgrade was just too much for her. Hahaha! Does anyone else have this voice issue? Thanks.

Hi All
After hearing that the App Store had been down for a few hours, I wondered if Apple had been doing some work to fix the accessibility issues that us iPad
users had been experiencing. So, this morning, I thought I'd check out the app store on the iPad for myself and to my great surprise, the search function
is again usable with voiceover. I have an iPad 2 but I'm guessing that the app store should be the same for other iPads as well. I hope this news brings
as much joy to other iPad users as to myself.

At least once per week when I open Seeing AI, I have to accept the agreement terms. Is this a new thing with them that Seeing AI needs this to be done so often? Any ideas? Thanks.

Hello,
While I was using iPhone se, I could end a call by pressing the top button. But now I can't do it with the side button on an iPhone 7. It simply does nothing/ I have to take my ear away from the phone speaker to switch to the speaker, then double tap with two fingers to end the call. Please help me.

Hello
A while ago I installed the new Siri UK English female voice, but after discovering a couple of pronounciation issues, I deleted her again. Well. After reinstalling her today I discovered she pronounces: "No unread mails" correctly. One thing I'm not sure about? Is this the old Siri voice? She now sounds a little bit to excited for my liking and in some instances it almost sounds if she sings not speaks.

Hi All,
Using the siriusXM app on the iPhone can anybody tell me how to get to the live feed of the mlb network channel?

Hello All!
Can somebody direct me to maybe a blog or a podcast, or something else on applevis that discusses the SiriusXM iPhone app and explains how to change channels when another channel is playing and how to add a channel as a favorite and then find that channel again later on in my favorites?
Thanks.
