VoiceOver and WhatsApp

By Shani Little, 9 April, 2023

iOS and iPadOS

Is there any way that how much VoiceOver speaks, especially within a WhatsApp group chat, can be reduced? For instance, when clicking on a message it mentions all the details, the person’s name, phone number, emogies etc, before eventually getting to the actual message. So it says Message or document from maybe John 0721234567 plus all the emogies at the person’s name. When it is a replied message, it adds, Replying to a message from maybe the person’s name and phone number. is all this information necessary? Is there no setting one can switch all that detail off, or could it somehow be rectified?
