Hi Brenda
No, not to my knowledge. I think once you have updated the IOS, it is here
to stay.

I suspect the answer is no. Since it is a core component of the OS.

No, and I honestly think the New one sounds better anyway.

OH same here. I love the voice and the personality seems more human if that
makes sense.

Worth noting that the new voice only seems to be a US one for now. It's still
Daniel for UK english. Incidentaly, Daniel sounds like he's got his head
buried in a pillow on IOS7!

Doesn't sound that bad to me, but I guess everybody has their own opinions.
Like I said if they would just enable the Siri voice is everything would be
okay. I wonder what the hell they use anyway.

I agree, Daniel sounds not quite as good as he did before! Oh, so we missed out
on the new voice as well! I am sorry about this because I liked the sound of
her!

Hi Carol,
You can change Siri's language independently of voiceover. This gives you the
new US voice. I haven't tested extensively to ascertain how differently
recognition works etc.

Thanks, it seems to be working okay for me. I will let everyone know if I find
any specific things that make me think that it is not working so well to have
the American voice over here in UK. I don't think, though, that this will be
the case!

I think so, too. I put in the high quality voices and I thought maybe I
could give her a way to get a semblance of that voice back, I don't think I
can.
Now, here's what I found with the iPod touch fifth generation, though.
It seems that, with the compact voices off, Siri becomes more
Hi!
Yeah, I’m still trying to understand this. I just installed the high quality UK
voice and it sounds a world different from my compact voice here. Any chance
you can provide samples?
I hear multiple people saying it sounds either distorted or different in some
other strange way.
Regards,
aha! That's exactly what she says, too. Interesting. Can we actually adjust
her pitch like we can in the screen readers? Do you think that might help,
that is, if we can do that?
Take care,
Brenda

That's because you have to get the high-quality version. I don't know how that
exactly is done, it's hit or miss.

Will you'll be happy to here that you don't have to learn to speek 'merkan when
the dialect is set that way on Siri. I've asked the following questions:
1. Who am I?
2. Where am I?
3. What team does Darron Gibson play for?
4. Who was George Best?
In both cases the same correct responses
Siri, the female voice in US English, sounds real sad. The life has gone out
of her voice. The male voice doesn't sound too bad. I don't know who that
voice is.

Brenda

For one thing, why in the first place would you even consider going back? I
guess people have their reasons, but that seems a bit odd to me that anyone
in their right thinking would wish to do that.

Siri seems much more responsive in iOS 7 then it did before. I am not piling
on, but that does indeed seem strange.

I didn't really think the female voice sounded quote: sad, but I do agree
whole heartedly that the male voice sounds better in my opinion. I can't
put my finger on why, but yeah...
