Are you talking about SiriusXM? If so, you can check out StarPlayrX. I'm not sure if it's still being maintained or not. I pulled it down and used it a while ago, but I ended up just getting used to the SiriusXM app. Also, note the spelling of the app, i.e. there's no 'e' in StarPalyrX. This

I would agree with Sieghard, but I suspect what Mary and others are getting at is not what they choose to use or not but what others are using and how that might affect how they interpret the world based on those AI generated descriptions. As Mary says though, anytime you're getting a

Just a bit more info, but when you pull up the App Store, you need to tap on the Search tab in the lower right hand corner. The search field is at the top of the screen, and it's labeled "Games, Apps, Stories and More" so it's easy to miss that it's a edit field, since you have to listen to all

You might want to make sure require attention is toggled off. You can find this in Settings -> Face ID and Passcode. If you already have this toggled off then experiment with different distances from your face. I was holding the phone too close to my face and once I got the distance down, it's
