iOS and iPadOS

Post Date:

Hi everyone. I have encountered the following issue on my iPhone on iOS 13:
Go to settings > Accessibility > VoiceOver > Commands > All commands > VoiceOver > Label Item. The default gesture is "two finger single tap and hold". But if I do so, nothing happens. To change the label item, you have to double-tap with two finger ans hold to execute the command "label item".
Although, the problem is that some gestures were shown wrongly to the customers. That's a really serious issue I think. Can anyone confirm that behaviour?

When I call an agency, I regularly get a menu of options.
I then have to choose an option by entering a number.
Since iOS 15, VoiceOver sound is either very quiet or completely gone during a phone call.
Sometimes it is not possible to select a number at all. Very frustrating if, for example, you have a call bus
want to order.
I've been looking in the settings to see if I can set something here, but unfortunately I can't find anything.
Anyone have the same experience and possible solution?

Is anyone else finding that VoiceOver is not consistent when you raise your phone to wake it? Sometimes it announces the time, sometimes it is silent, apart from reporting the screen’s return to locked.

Hello, I'm having an accessibility issue with VoiceOver in the Apple Books app on my iPad, where it skips parts of the text. On my iPhone this doesn't happen.
I'm experiencing this issue when reading a book in Apple Books on my iPad. The VoiceOver cursor jumps around and skips entire sections of text. On my iPhone, however, this doesn't occur -- VoiceOver reads the book smoothly without skipping anything.

Hi, my phone seems to have slowed down after I updated to iOS 16.3. Is anyone experiencing similar problems pls?

Hello all. Since upgrading to iOS6 VoiceOver gets sluggish in audio apps such as Garage Band, Korg iKaossilator, Sonos Controller and probably many others. I often end up killing the abusing app(s) when things get really, really slow. :) I was hoping this would get fixed in the latest updates to iOS6 but apparently this did not happen. I want to file a bug against this issue and would like to give Apple as much information as possible. Please suggest other apps you may have seen that express a similar behavior.

This just started happening when I updated my iPhone to the latest iOS. How do I control it, how do I switch so that it does or does not happen, how does this crazy thing know when I have Bluetooth headphones connected and not a Bluetooth speaker. Honestly it’s really cool and really new but I would like to know how to control it. If any of you have had this happen please let me know. If I am supposed to have this happen and everyone else has done, sorry for posting more than one topic.

Compared to the sound level for the voice itself, the sound effects are very loud. Where can I adjust the volume level for the sound effects? Thank you.

Hello, I was wondering if in the new iOS sounds, where you can enable, or disable them. Does anyone know if there is one for when you slide up from the bottom of the screen for home button? I have not been able to find one, but it seems like most of the other sounds have been thought of, even one for screen lock, which I never liked. Thanks so much.

Hello. So, today I updated to iOS 18.0.1. When I put on my AirPods, my voiceover sounds are in mono. I know for a fact, that’s when not wearing my AirPods, my phone has them in stereo. I don’t know what could be causing this, and I can’t find a fix for this. I tried resetting my AirPods, restarting my phone, and pairing them again. This did not fix the issue. Any help would be appreciated.

Anyone else get Voiceover echoing back text that is entered by Dictation in certain places? A quick example follows:

  1. Get lucky enough to get an iMessage while using something like Twitterrific, or even Music.

  2. Swipe down on the notification to reply to the message.

  3. Startt dictation, and notice what happens.

As you speek, Voiceover should say exactly what you say a few sedons after you do so. This leads to some vary interesting repeated text to say the least.

I have an iPhone X and I've noticed that in more recent versions of iOS, if I'm talking on the ear piece of the phone voiceover still speaks if my face touches the screen. I have noise cancelation turned on and all of that. I know in the past if you had the phone to your ear, the screen would basically freeze up so you wouldn't accidentally activate something with your face. This no longer seems to be the case. I even accidentally hung up on people occasionally because of this. Has anyone else encountered this issue?

Hello all,

My wife just upgraded to iOS 16.5 and now Voiceover pronounces "pause equals seven one one" on every icon as she navigates. As she goes from icon to icon it says the name of the icon like it should, then adds "pause equals seven one one". I am also at 16.5, I turned Voiceover on and it does not do that for me. We both have iPhone 12s. I told her this sounds like a debug statement that some Apple developer left in, except it does not do that for me.

Anyone else experience this or can make any sense out of it ?

Hi!
Just wondering if any of you can reproduce this, before reporting it to Apple.
So the thing is, if I'm playing audio through my AirPlay device, in my case the Apple-TV, and then for what ever reason turn VO off and back on again, VO will then speak through the AirPlay device.
This happens both on my iPhone 6 and on an iPad Air 2, and both are running on iOS 9.2

Hi everyone,
Whenever my alarm goes off on either my iPad or iPhone, voiceover speaks very loudly until I swipe to the stop button. Once I double tap stop, it begins speaking at normal volume again. I'm not too sure, but I think this problem happens when the phone rings as well, and sometimes, Siri's volume is unpredictable as well. Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi all.
I have a strange issue that I've never had before.
I need to record podcasts with demonstration of different apps with VoiceOver, and recently I started to have the issue that when iPhone is connected to mixer via it's litening to 3.5 adaptor the speech of VoiceOver doesn't start from the beginning, the volume of it rases from low to high. And it sounds like you connected bluetooth headphones or speakers to iPhone. As the result the beginning of VoiceOver's phrase cuts off, like one second.
