iOS and iPadOS

Hi all. I have an iPhone 12 pro and iOS 15.2. Everything has been fine up to this point however yesterday all of a sudden VoiceOver has started reading random punctuation. It’s not everywhere but if I scroll through list of emails or read out text messages it reads every piece of punctuation including apostrophes within words. I’ve checked my punctuation level and have it sent to none. If I touch the battery percentage at the top of the screen instead of saying 70% it says 70 so it’s all together pretty random.

I've been using a Focus 40 Blu for a while now and never had an issue with anything. I turned off the display but my phone keeps toggling quick nav on and off. I'm unable to type with the on-screen keyboard. I've turned off bluetooth and the display but is still says quick nav on and off when I attempt to type. This is extremely annoying. Does anyone have any ideas how to fix this?

So, this is even before IOS 18, so, not sure if this goes in bug-tracker category.
Basically, sometimes, while swiping from top/bottom edges for doing those home/recents/notification/Control center gestures, with VO, sometimes it enters some entirely different mode, where things on screen visually are at completely different places, and, it makes a sound which I can only discribe as "Swoosh in", and, "Swoosh out". As in, 2 different sounds, 1 when device enters that weird mode, and 1 when it gets out.

Hello. Recently I've been having a very strange glitch with the youtube app. Whenever I go into the comments, voiceover begins reading all of the punctuation. And this time it hasn't stopped. Has anyone else experienced this and knows how to fix it?

Hi, I’m wondering if anyone has had this issue and knows how to solve it. For some reason out of nowhere, voiceover is now reading all the punctuation on the screen even though I have the punctuation sent to some. I don’t know why this is happening because it just started happening out of nowhere. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Hello everyone.
Discord. Many people in the blind community have heard of it. Many people in the blind community, at least to my knowledge, consider its accessibility to be... laughable, at best. But let me tell you a story.
In late may I posted to Discord's forums, advocating for the need for increased accessibility. Within a day my post had gotten over forty upvotes from the community.

Ok guys put this in iOS forum as found this on my iPhone. Been testing the new Envision app and purely by accident discovered that according to the AI we are currently in the year 2022. So, does anyone know why this would be 2 years out of date and does any other AI engine have these types of issues. Seems bad to me that it isn't in line with the real world.

Hello everybody.

I'm having trouble getting West Minster Chimes and Voice Clock to work in IOS 15.

Is anybody else having the same problem?

If so, why is that?

And can it be fixed?

Thanks in advance.

Hi: Wondering if there has been any additional information on Westminster Chimes not working properly in IOS6. I have the app on my iPhone 4S, running IOS5.1.1 with no issues & love the app. I'm concerned (based on previous forum posts) that if I upgrade to IOS6 Westminster Chimes won't work as well (if at all) as it did with IOS5.1.1. I'd appreciate hearing any more information on this subject. Thanks.

Using iPhone 4S, running 6.0 & using the paid version of Westminster Chimes. Does anyone know how to get voice over to announce the time when Westminster Chimes sounds the hour & half hour? This use to work for me, but after the last couple of upgrades it no longer performs this action. I've followed the developer's instructions noted in the app & only have sounds turned on. Also have selected "some punctuation" in my roter.

Looking for some assistance with the Westminster chimes app. The app previously announced (with voice over running) the time when it chimed both the hour & half hour. After the last upgrade the app doesn't seem to announce the time any more. I'm running 6.01 on an iPhone 4S. I have Westminster Chimes running in my Notifications center. I've turned everything except "sounds" off in the notifications section for the app. Should I be changing the settings in either the Notifications area or the app itself to get the time announcement back? What settings should I use in either of these areas

Hi all,

I'm testing a WeWalk smart cane together with WeWalk smart map application on my iPhone SE 2022, iOS 17.3.1.

GPS navigation during walking works excellent, but I have a problem with GPS navigation in combination with public transport.

I have connected WeWalk, set location to always and turned on exploration mode.

I enter my home adress and adress of my work place. After that, I choose the best transport option, which includes walking, driving in a tram, than walking again, than driving in a bus, than walking again to the building I work in.

I'm not sure how many WeWalk users we have on here but is anyone else finding that the app when location is set to always is draining your phones battery and causing it to get very warm? I know that having an apps location set to always verses only while using can drain battery but this app is pretty thirsty.

What doors have been opened for you thanks to screen recognition? I just got my new iPhone 12 pro and want to try apps that are usable with screen recognition.

Hi! Is there any improvement in ios8.2 for the notification bug in locked screens? i.e. Most notifications are not spoken when push messages come in from certain apps as twitter or news apps. In unlocked mode however they are spoken properly. This is an important bug for me whether to decide to upgrade or not from ios7 to 8.
