Re: can't turn voice over off, help
Hello, Just a little note here, if you don't mind. If you have airplain mode on, you will not be able to use Siri.

There are a few ways of turning Voiceover off. One is to do a triple click of the home button, or you can ask Siri to turn it off for you. If you're near a computer, I think you can turn it off with iTunes. HTH.

Re: alix
Hi Billy. This has already been talked about, but I find that Alex beats any of the high quality or compact Vocalizer Expressive voices. Some say that he sounds distorted, but I don't have that problem. My volume for Voiceover and the phone in general is about the same so no distortion here.

Re: HQ voice for the 4S?
Don't worry about that, when it says VoiceOver, on, button it's just confirming that it is indeed on. You cannot accidentally turn it off unless you double tap the second VoiceOver, on, button.

Although now that I think of it, I guess I could have turned it back on using Siri if necessary. Don Roberts On 10/24/2014 12:09 PM, Sieghard Weitzel wrote: Don, Where exactly did you check?
