Hi! As a reply to my own message, I already got this confirmed. It has not been fixed as has been thought on the list, speaking of premium voices as originally was the case. At least, that's what we ended up talking about. If you download more than one premium voice and use the language rotor

It would make more sense if Apple enables us to decide on what the default voice should be. Should i really have to listen to Daniel every time I hold in my home button to verbally interact with my phone? This does not just effect VO users, but anyone who takes advantage of voice commands,

Hello Nic Where's the setting for premium voices? As you know I don't use VO most of the time but when we update Gordon's iPhone later on it would be nice if we could switch to a premium voice instead of that horrendous compact Daniel. Daniel always sound to me as though he's got his head

hello Nic That's very interesting; I will check that now because either ours hasn't changed, or else they both sound the same to me. :) Ours spend most of their grime plugged into the computer unless we're actually using them. So the voices should definitely have downloaded. Many thanks.
