Hi,
ok, if you tell voice over to read the word, "hmm" (i found it on whats app) siri us english male default, not enhanced, will read it with a slower speed than default. if it only read the "hmm" with slower speeds, that is understandable, but this voice also reads the things that is after the word "hmm" with the slower rate. Sorry for bad english and sorry if offtopic or duplicated. thanks.
iOS and iPadOS
Hi.
I have iOS13 installed and have noticed that I can't use the new natural Siri voice with voiceover. Any tips on how you can use it with voiceover, or is their something wrong? Thanks. I really am looking forward to using this voice.
Since installing iOS 15 and the last two updates to iOS 15, I am noticing that the voice used for Siri keeps switching.
I have always been using the high quality Alex voice both for Voiceover and Siri.
After installing iOS 15, however, every once in a while Siri answers a query with a really unusual female voice that sounds kind of robotic.
Hi folks!
I just updated to iOS 17 despite all the reports I've been reading. So far, so good. VoiceOver never crashed and I'm doing well.
The only question is, my Siri voices are still using the big ones of hundreds of MB. For those who got the new and more expressive voices for VoiceOver, are these of similar sizes? If not, I guess I'll have to delete the current Siri voices and redownload again.
Also, I just looked under the English UK settings and didn't find the 2 new voices.
Thanks and hope to hear that I'm missing something. :)
I am re-posting this because I incorrectly stated the problem in my earlier submission.
Sometimes, especially after a phone call, Siri's voice changes to the earpiece from the speaker making it difficult to hear if you are away from the iPhone. This routing persists even after re-starting VoiceOver. It seems to revert back to going through the speaker after some time. Alternatively, re-starting the phone will fix the problem.
I am using an iPhone 12 running IOS 15.2. I have spoken to somebody else, who uses an iPhone 11, and he is having the same issue.
hello friends,
i was wondering if there was a way to increase the siri voice speech rate,
i know we can increase the speech rate of siri in speak screen and speak selection but i would like to know if there is a way to increase the siri voice speech rate in general.
for instance,
if i ask siri to send an email to mom,
i would like to increase her response rate,
lol i hope i am clear enough in what i actually want,
thank you so much and hoping for a response
sincerely,
arvind
I am extremely impressed with IOS 11.2. At last I can now use the new Siri US female voice. She is so fast and by far my favourite. Thanks man Apple. Thank You so much. Now this is interesting; When my phone is in it's poutch and notifications appear, only the tones are playing and nothing is beeing read automatically on the lock screen,, but I have no problems with this issue when my phone is out of it's poutch and laying on my desk. Wonders why this happens?
Hi AppleVis community
Siri voices keep disappearing from my iPad and iPhone running the latest iOS and iPadOS. I download the voices again then a day or two they disappear. Any idea what could be triggering this and what could be a solution?
Thanks
Hello everyone,
As new software updates from apple have arrived, there are many exciting features for us to start looking in to. One of the features I was excited about was the new Siri voices for English India.
I have been trying to download these voices on my iPhone and subsequently on my Apple Watch, no joy, however.
The voices are listed in the speech menu under accessibility/voiceover/speech, but I am unable to select them for downloading on the phone.
Needless to say, these voices cannot be downloaded on my Apple Watch as well.
I know this has been talked about before but I can't seem to locate the post. I'm using the latest version of IOS on an IPhone16. Whenever I'm scrolling on facebook using the siri voices I'm hearing weird noises kind of like a growl, it sounds freeky to be honest lol. Is there a way around this or does anyone know what's causing this?
Thanks
Hi,
Does anyone know why the female VoiceOver voice doesn't sound like Siri?
Hi all,
I have an iphone 5 running iOS 8.03.
At times when I hit the Home button to go Home, Siri comes up instead. Now this is happening with a *short* click on Home - not a long one.
If I click Home again, nothing happens. I can't get Siri to go away. If I keep trying, VO gets turned off.
Is there some other way to exit Siri without locking the screen?
Thanks,
June I.
Hi, What do I do to fix this? I have it set to work under Siri if phone is locked. It still won't work. Help is appreciated. Thanks.
Hello everyone! I changed my language to the United Kingdom English. And when I called Siri, she sounded so robotic. and I would like to edit that, she comes to life at some point. for example: When I ask about some famous people, she reads the page in the robotic voice. and when she asks that would you like to more infomation, she comes to her human form. Pleas help me. Thank you!
I'm not sure what I did to cause this, if anything, but siri is quite a bit quieter than the regular voiceover voice now as is the double-beep noise that activates siri when I hit the home button. How do I fix this?
Has anyone tried the Sirius Xm ap lately on an IPhone 5s? I did a search for Sirius Xm on Applevis, and I'll admit that I didn't look at all of the content but everything I saw that said the ap wasn't accessible was from at least a couple of years ago. I'm just wondering if the ap has been updated since 2013 or 14 so that it's accessible?
Hi,
This crosses into iOS and iOS apps and also could cross into mac OS and mac OS apps, but is Sirius Xm more accessible on iOS, or in safari/chrome on Mac OS these days?
I remember several years ago, it wasn't very accessible on iOS, but that was probably a good 4 or 5 years ago now.
Thanks for any pointers.
