Miss pronunciation of dates on iOS 13.3

By Brian, 20 December, 2019

iOS and iPadOS

I have an iPhone XR. I am using iOS 13.3. Since the iOS 13 update my phone has been pronouncing the date 2020 and inserting the word inches after it. My wife has an iPhone XS and it doesn’t do it on that. I haven’t found anyone else yet whose phone does this. Does anyone know how I can cure this problem especially as next year will be 2020, without the inches. It’s going to be really annoying. I’ve experimented with other dates and it doesn’t do it.

Use pronunciation option to rectify the error. You can find it under accessibility, speech.

Thank you. I missed the obvious solution.

iPhone XS and iOS 13.3 Does This As Well

While looking ahead in the native Calendar app, I discovered that VO says something like 20th 20. It appears that it is another issue in iOS 13. Hopefully they will fix this one soon.
