Hi all.
Voicedream Reader will stop playing with headphone controls, but won't play. This happens both with SHokz Openrun Pro and Airpods Pro 2nd Gen. I haven't tried the wired Earpods yet. In order to play I have to unlock the phone and do the magic tap. Is there a setting somewhere to fix this? I don't think I changed any defaults, either in Voicedream or wherever you'd change what the headphone controls could do.

Same problem with Airpods
Yes, I also notice that using the standard play/stop actions on my Airpods often do not start playback in Voice Dream when the phone is locked. I often have to unlock the phone to get playback started again. This has been going on for some time and continues in the iOS 26 betas.
Hope this can be fixed.

This is a known bug.
The latest update of voicedream should fix this bug. The developers know about it, but I'm not sure how responsive they will be with it.
Re: Bug.
So are you saying there's an update that will fix it, or that if they ever do an update, they might fix it? Looks like I need to try Speech Central for iOS then. I have VDR because I bought it ages ago so I don't have to subscribe. But it doesn't really do me much good if I have to mess around with the phone to do anything with it. Because I can just use other things to read the same content then.
