iOS and iPadOS

Post Date:
Hi all, I have been using iOs 5 for 3 days now. I have notticed some issues specially the voiceover response. The first issue that I would like to talk about is typing. When I touch a letter, voiceover annunces immediately the letter under my finger. I remove the finger from the screen and the letter is written. A few time later, I touch another letter, and voiceover has some lag to say which letter I am touching. In general, voiceover has become more slow to answer commands and give the voice output as fast as it did in other ios versions.

Hey guys, new to the forums. Was wondering if anyone experiences any of these two issues, Safari constantly freezing, and when you use dictation to fill in and edit field box and when you're done dictating and tap done it actually deletes the text it just wrote? Seems like the faster these phones and tablets are getting, the slower and more unreliable voiceover is getting.

So I rarely use Apple Maps and rarely interact with any map on the screen whatsoever. I was exploring Apple Maps,I'm sure this also happen with the generic map interface in any app.

Hey and good evening.

so, technically speaking iOS and iPad OS are two similar systems and have the same core functionality, iPpad OS is more aimed at the productive side and has some functions we iPhone users are missing.

I'm currently looking at a cheap iPad I can get for a posible productive device so w麓I was curious about something.

I can only find the gestures for the traditional iOS on the iPhone, what I'm searching for is a list of things and gestures that work different on the iPad than on the iPhone and what extra functions I have available.

Hi,

As the subject line suggests, after upgrading to a new shiny iPhone12 pro running IOS 14.2, after I create a folder, (for this example lets call it music), when I navigate around the OS I'm continually hearing Voiceover say music before reading an element.
Also music is spoken in empty search fields.

Any ideas how I can cure this?

Many thanks in advance of suggestions made.

Kind regards

Graham

Hi friends, I鈥檓 experiencing an issue where VoiceOver cuts out at the beginning of sentences.
When VoiceOver starts reading something, it often skips the first word or the first two words.

I鈥檓 using an iPhone 15 Pro with iOS 18.3.
Does anyone else have this issue?

Thanks for your help!

I've come across an annoying bug which I'd like to know if other people have come across. My phone crashed today when I was making a call. I tried ending the call but it wouldn't let me. VoiceOver got deactivated and I couldn't start it up using the triple click of the home button. It reset the VoiceOver settings to the default ones when I finally got it talking again with sighted assistance. I'm using IOS6 and Iphone 4s. This is the first time this has happened but it is v annoying especially as I was travelling outside when this happened.

Hello everyone!

I updated to iOS 11.1 yesterday and it鈥檚 basically been a mess ever since. I can鈥檛 get voiceover to read anything! It lags, maybe reads the first line of whatever I鈥檓 trying to read, and promptly crashes the app. This has happened with Outlook, Safari, email, and settings so far. I鈥檓 using an iPhone 6 but this is also happening on my iPad 2. Turning voiceover off hasn鈥檛 changed anything and apps still crash even after it鈥檚 off. Is there anything I can do about this problem? Thanks for any help!

Hello Apple Viz community,
Ever since I got my iPhone 6, I've been having frequent voiceover crashes when browsing web pages on safari and when reading texts continuously with VoiceOver. Has anyone been experiencing similar issues and if so, any suggestions for a solution?

Thanks in advance!

Hi, I've just had Voiceover crash whilst using the BBC Iplayer app and I've had to use Itunes to get it to speak again. Does anyone know how to exit a program once you've listened to it on Iplayer? VO won't let me navigate around the screen. Anyway, I exited voiceover with the triple click of the home key but I was unable to restart voiceover again by tripple pressing the home key again.

I couldn't find another post talking about this bug, so I decided to create a topic. Anyone else experiencing this? It happens frequently. Voiceover stopping and restarting on it's own. This is especially annoying while typing or swiping through apps. I'm on an iPhone 13. Hoping this gets fixed because it's awful. Only started happening after the update.

With the popularity of audio input interfaces, like the Tascam IM2 and IXJ2, that also takeover iOS audio output in less headphones are availible, Voiceover Custem VibraLerts could be very helpful. Of course, other uses could also be found for the VibraLert, givin various types of situations.

When browsing over something like a newsfeed, which has a title, time, byline, content, and maybe some other controls such as Like or Comment, do you prefer that VoiceOver read out each element separately? Or would you prefer the whole item to be read aloud and the possible actions be put in "Actions Available"?

If image description is on, VoiceOver seems to treat text fields or table cells that contain a single character as though it is an image, and provides a spurious description of it. For example, if I encounter a table cell containing the single character "1", VoiceOver may say "one straw drinking". I've reported this to Apple; has anyone else encountered this?

Post Date:

In What's app, when I select an audio message to be played, voiceover attempts to describe the image after I double tap, such as "Possible person, possible text"
This causes the beginning of the message to be unintelligible because voiceover is stepping on it.
The workaround for me is to stop speech, then double tap, but surely there is a more elegant way.
I made sure image descriptions was off in voiceover settings, but no dice.
Any suggestions?
Thanks much.

Suppose you wish to share a photo and are searching for the desired option in the share menu, or you have a shortcut set to bring up a dialogue box and prompt you to make a selection. There should be other similar instances where VoiceOver fails to distinguish the popup window from the main window, but these are two that I can think of for now. I don't know about VoiceOver on MacOS or iPadOS, but apparently we need better object navigation for VoiceOver like that of NVDA for all Apple operating systems. Does the iPad differ from the iPhone in that respect?
