On my work iphone 6 and my personal Iphone 5s the voiceover sounds very computerised suddenly. I have it on the British english voice as I am in the UK instead of it sounding natural and fluid like it always did everything sounds muffled and very computerised. It can't be the speaker as my work iphone 6 is brand new and my iphone 5s does the same thing. Even my wife's iphone 5s has it when I borrowed it and turned voiceover on. Has anyone else experienced this problum and even better do you know of a fix?

iOS and iPadOS
I have an iPad. When I turn VoiceOver on touching screen doesn't work. Some
games need double click and touching , and it dosnt function well when
voiceover is on , when I turn it off I can use these games properly. I
need to know if using VoiceOver prevent me from using double tap on some
buttons. Thanks
Hello all,
I find myself struggling with Voiceover on my new iPad. I am quite comfortable with VO on my iPhone but with the increased form factor on the iPad and its different layout with multiple panes etc. I find it difficult to navigate some of my favorite apps like News, Podcast, Downcast etc. Are there some basic stuff I need to understand for navigating comfortably on the iPad? Any settings that will make my life easier? Any help will be welcome.
Thanks/
Hello,
I have just unboxed my iPad mini -- pressed the power button...turned on the voice over by pressing the home button thrice, and completed the set up. I have been using iPhone for a while now -- currently have a 4S, but I have noticed that the voice on the iPad is somewhat different, it is kind of high pitch and not very clear. Do I need to make changes in the settings in order for it to sound like my iPhone?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Hi everyone
After the latest update of the app to my homebanking, now VoiceOver on my iPhone translate numbers to letters, e.g. when I read character by character, and if I lets VoiceOver read the informations on the hole screen.
The number 3.228,63 is translated to the text three thousand two hundred and twenty-eight comma six three.
If you look visually on the screen, and also take a Picture via the build in option, the number is written with numbers. My homebanking support has not heard about this problem before for sighted people.
I use my Mac for all tasks that require any kind of writing of any length, including texts and E-mails. I have always found the text editing experience on IOS with VoiceOver to be somewhat lacking. Therefore, I have not used a keyboard with my iPhone in many years. I recently pared my Magic Keyboard with my iPhone, to see if and how things have changed. I have gotten mixed results. Everything works as expected in Messages. In Notes, when editing, when arrowing up and down, VO reads the entire paragraph, not the lines.
I am using an iPhone 6s plus, my software version is 13.3. I turn on VoiceOver (Accessability / VoiceOver on) and open a book in Kindle, then swipe down with two fingers for continuous reading. Until the last two upgrades voiceover would read the book to me correctly except for some odd pronunciations.
I have noticed:
That in iOS 13 and above, voiceover will only read the second number in a series or column of numbers
for example, if I am looking at my banking app, and it says $350, it will only say the number five
Hi folks. Iāve been having a problem with my phone for a while where sometimes very randomly and sporadically, VoiceOver will only be talking out of the top speaker and you hear absolutely nothing from the bottom speaker. I Iām using an iPhone 8 Plus with iOS 14.3 and this actually has been happening for me since iOS 13.7. I know my speakers arenāt damaged because when Iām playing audio for everything else, like watching videos, listening to music, podcasts, etc., stereo sound out of the top and bottom speakers is perfectly fine.
So I've been having issues with Voiceover not coming back up after I get off a call, but I simply shut down VO and bring it back up. A pain, but it works.
This morning, Voiceover is only working when I ask SIRI something, and I can get voice on the SIRI screen.
But as soon as I close the SIRI screen, Voiceover goes away.
I have powered the phone off and back up, I have stopped and started VO with SIRI, cycled VO off and on with triple tap, nothing is working.
I have made no updates recently, nor any changes.
Hello team, how are you?
Since iOS 17.0, I was able to identify immediately after installing the system that the page loading sound played by VoiceOver is very low, with almost zero volume.
To reproduce the problem, simply open Safari and start loading any page, with VoiceOver enabled and its sounds turned on.
Hi folks,
I hope youāre all doing well! I wanted to reach out regarding a problem Iām experiencing with the YouTube app on iOS when using VoiceOver.
When I try to adjust the playback speed, the app crashes suddenly. Additionally, Iām only able to see a limited set of speed options: āNormal speed,ā ā0.75x,ā ā0.50x,ā and ā0.25x.ā The faster speed optionsā1.25x, 1.50x, 1.75x, and 2xāare not visible. Interestingly, the Screen Recognition feature makes all speed options appear again, but that workaround isnāt ideal.
Maybe it's just me and my hearing, but I think the voiceover pops to slide to unlock, app switcher, etc. need to be louder. I can hardly hear them. Is there a way to actually turn up the vo sounds without it turning up the voice?
Thanks
Hey EveryOne,
I was just messing with my VO/ Accessibility Settings, because My phone just stopped giving me haptic Feedback when I was interacting with my phone.
I have sounds switched to on but I was still not getting the Haptic Feedback so I went into Accessibility Settings and Vo Settings to see if I could fix it⦠I turned a couple of settings On/Off (But I CanāT Remember Which Ones Lol) And now after every letter/Word/ Tap and after interacting with any apps etc, VO now is saying āFrameā!!!!
Literally After Anything VO Speaks⦠I Get āFrameā!!!!
Hi all, Since upgrading to IOS8 I have noticed a few bugs with Voice over.
I recently bought an ipad Air 4 (ios 14.4). Previously I used an ipad Air 3. The Air 4 has considerably more power so I was not expecting to run into serious new Voice Over problems. Problems are mostly with but not limited to safari. When loading pages from a site with a mixture of text, pictures and videos, VO will start to read the text ok but after a few lines will stop and Safari will completely lock up. After waiting about 20 seconds it will unlock but VO will be chopped up and unusable. I then give up and accept this web site is not accessible.
I am registered blind and my life was made much easier when I purchased my iPad. I could shop, email keep in touch with friends and family,listen to books on my kindel app.
Now my iPad is useless voiceover keeps switching on and off and is causing all sorts of problems for me. When will this problem be fixed???
