Re: Possible Conflict Involving VoiceOver and Some GPS Apps
which GpsApps have you tried? - Original Message - From: Craig Werner coffeeb...@gmail.com To: viphone viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Sunday, January 27, 2013 8:55 AM Subject: Possible Conflict Involving VoiceOver and Some GPS Apps Greetings to the list. I am evaluating some GPS apps for the iPhone, and I have noticed that from time to time, disabling or enabling VoiceOver seems to shut down the app's own voice-guided turn-by-turn instructions. I'm trying to understand this problem. Perhaps I am performing an action to disable VoiceOver; on the other hand, perhaps this problem is real. Can anyone shed light on this concern?

Re: Possible Conflict Involving VoiceOver and Some GPS Apps
Hello, Pablo. I have tried Google Maps and MapQuest so far. If I lose the ap's internal voice guide, toggling VoiceOver from one state to the other will restore it. As I said, I don't even know if the problem is real. The phenomenon may be being triggered by an action I am performing without my knowledge.

Re: Possible Conflict Involving VoiceOver and Some GPS Apps
As far as I am aware, you should not be experiencing such. If You were muting VO with a three finger double tap, it might make more sense. However, as you are completely removing VO from the system, the apps' voice guidance features should not be effected, unless voice guidance is using the Apple built-in speech, and turning VO off is taking precedence over the apps' call to built-in speech. Come to think of it, that may well be what is occurring. If you leave VO off before you launch the app and voice guidance then works, this is likely what is going on. You will need a sighted person to help test this theory.

Re: Possible Conflict Involving VoiceOver and Some GPS Apps
Hi all, I have some apps for Spanish that use audible recordings. If voiceover is on, it lowers the volume of the Spanish app and I have to keep voiceover off for it to work correctly. I don't know if this is what you're talking about but I thought I would put it in for what it's worth. I know that this is the way voiceover is supposed to work, so perhaps voiceover should be off before the app is launched.
