Hello, I tried to update my iPhone XS Max to iOS13 but it seems to be stuck on the apple loading screen for 12+ hours. I tried to use some third party apps to try and pull it out of the loading screen but it didn’t work. It gets to the ‘swipe up to upgrade’ screen and gets stuck at the end of the loading bar. Is there any other way I can fix this without losing data? Thank you.

So my friend has a 6S and as for my post yesterday about her not using voiceover in the middle or the top of the screne, voice control in iOS 13 caught my attention. Since she relies heavily on Siri to read messages and stuff, would voice control work and how is it used exactly?

I just updated to iOS 13.1.2 from iOS 12.4.1. In so doing, I noticed right away that I can no longer enter the amount of a mobile deposit using the keyboard preented by the Wells FArgo app, which has not been updated yet for iOS 13. This indicates possibly something in VoiceOver has changed. Note that this worked for me three weeks ago when I made a previous deposit into the app.

I have just update my iphone 7+ to IOS 13.1 which probably the latest update. I am trying to turn of haptics specially when i am using slight typing mode, which is a new feature of this update. I tried gone through different posts and pod casts over apple vis website but all of them mentioned the path (settings>accessibility>voice over>audio>sounds and then sounds and haptics. but in my phone i am unable to find haptics options under sound. I dont know if they have provided this for the old iOS 13 or is this still available in IOS 13.1 update ? as i am unable to find them.

Hi guys
Do you know if there's a way in iOS 13.1 that would make voiceover speak on iphone speaker or headphones while the phone is streaming to a bluetooth device?
It's 2019 I am absolutely frustrated that i still can't do this.

Restoring to a brand-new 8+, no end of problems with Siri failing to complete basic requests Also Wi-Fi icon on status bar missing replaced with 4G even know within Wi-Fi settings home Wi-Fi is displaying as connected. I very disappointing as I am a strong user of Siri I have tried many of the possible fixes for addressing the Wi-Fi connectivity issue with no success yet. Any suggestions or recommendations most welcome. Also big shout out to the team at Apple bvis for
all the great help and support.

After reading several threads on the forum over the past few days I decided to update my iPhone 10 to IOS 13.1.2 today. When the update completed and my phone began to talk again the voice had changed from UK English Serena to Daniel. I went into Settings and tried to change the voice back to Serena. My settings say that Serena is the selected voice. I have tried selecting a different voice and then re-selecting Serena but when doing this nothing happens.

My friend has a 6S and is still running iOS 12 I believe. Ever since iOS 13.2 came out, do you think that she is safe to update? She wants to test the feature where she can ask siri to play radio stations or Pandora stations since she is an avid music lover. She doesn't use email so the mail bug wouldn't be an issue for her.

I haven't seen much at all on this site about the new iOS 13.4 update. have the bugs in 13.3.1 been fixed, and are there any new bugs? I would like to know before updating. Thanks.

Hi,
Setting up Siri shortcuts and assign them to a customized VoiceOver gesture works great. For example, I plan to use it for opening my favorite apps with 2-finger or 4-finger gestures which weren't assigned to VoiceOver actions yet. A 2-finger swipe to the right could now run a specific app very quickly and from any screen. In practice, every time I run a shortcut I'm asked to confirm before running it. Can I deactivate this behaviour somehow?
Thanks.

Hello everybody,
I have resisted my temptation to upgrade to iOS14 for a long time. After the painful experience of iOS13.
I have read many posts about problems and I am really hesitant because the only thing that I seem to like is the OCR recognition of the webpages. My questions are as follows:
1. Is the jumping focus bug fixed? From what I recall also in Google search which I use a lot and also in Safari the focus jumps a lot and it is really problematic to navigate some webpages. Is this still true for many of you?

In the list of new and resolved bugs in iOS 14, the following is currently written:
"The performance of Apple's new VoiceOver recognition features is inconsistent and unreliable, particularly that of Screen Recognition. It should be noted that these features are a work-in-progress, and your mileage may vary. As things are now, you should expect to find that there will be situations where having one or more of these features enabled will provide a worse experience than having them disabled."

Hi
I was wondering if two-factor authentication is required in iOS 14. It seems that I can’t turn it off.
Thank you

Listening to the podcast by Thomas regarding Becca tap on the new iOS 14, Thomas has his triple tap set to hang up phone calls. Looking through the list on My wife’s iPhone 10 S Hang up the phone call doesn’t appear in the list. Thomas is in the US, we are in the UK. Is it possible that we have different lists for some reason? Interesting to find out what other people have found.

VoiceOver on iOS 14 has arbitrarily re-labeled some of my iPhone folder names. If I open the mislabeled folder, VoiceOver reads the correct folder name. If I close the folder and navigate around my Home Screen, VO reads the mislabeled folder title.
I have also created a new folder titled "Browsers". As I navigate around the Home Screen, VoiceOver now puts the word "Browser" in front of many of my Home Screen folder names. If I flick down to the page number on my Home Screen, VoiceOver will read "Browser Page 1 of 2".

Hello everybody and have a great week.
Just a quick question. Has the focus back on the main client been fixed? I mean the bug that when you delete an email sometimes the focus jumps to the beginning of the page. On the applevis bug tracker it says that is fixed, even with Ios 13 but it was never fixed for me.
Furthermore has anybody tried other mail applications and does it happen in those too?
Thank you for your reply.

I have a iPhone 6s. I began running IOS 14 at the public release. Over all, I like it. I am experiencing some sluggishness, even after doing the second language in the rotor solution. The sluggishness isn't terrible but it is noticeable as compared to IOS 13. I am wondering how much of the sluggishness is due to the VO sluggishness bug in IOS 14 and how much of it is simply due to the fact that I am running IOS 14 on the oldest supported device.

I was all excited about using the new widgets in iOS 14 after listening to the excellent AppleVis podcast on this topic. So I went ahead and put together a stack of widgets using VoiceOver.
Now I wish I hadn't done that and rearranged my home screen to try and get rid of some apps.

I wanted to let you all know I found a great use for IOS14.1 voiceover recognition! if I turn it on in Safari, turn off voiceover sounds, and play a Japanese anime video, from one of my favorite anime websites... Normally I cannot watch it, it is all Japanese with English subtitles! well guess what? not anymore, now all those videos are accessible! just turn on screen recognition for Safari, load up a subtitled Japanese anime video, turn off voiceover sounds, sit back and enjoy as voiceover happily reads all the english subtitles to you! I love it love it love it!!
