When you say "Real writing seems to be a thing of the past, along with common sense and various other courtesies." I hope you're not disparaging Jonathan's podcast or his other contributions to this list and the books he's written. Some people prefer podcasts. I'm not one of them myself, but I do respect and appreciate the time it takes to record and publish a podcast. Remember this is a list of volunteers and not paid support people. I appreciate those who contribute in the fashion they can, and don't chastise them for not always giving me exactly waht I want in the format I want it.

So still none the wiser what it is or does.

Hi Jonathan and others,


I am positive I was not using VoiceOver to read the screen with the Kindle
app. I know this, because my VoiceOver speech rate and speak Screen speech
rate are completely different. They were both speaking at the same time
without any issues, too; I was just reading along as happy as could be (I
can't wait to do it again later!)

Oh, I'm kind of relieved to know that. Perhaps the user in question was
using VO when they thought they were using speak screen.

Hi Ioana. Have you verified that Kindle isn't working? It isn't for me,
but another user tells me it is working well for her, so it would be
interesting to see if others get better results than I have.

Great information!

Right after hearing about this great feature I went to the Kindle app
and wrote them requesting nicely that they implement better page scroll
in with speak screen. I encourage everyone to do the same.

What a nice thing that after all these years of working with the iPhone
I can still be surprised by hidden gems like this one.

Thanks

Ioana

Thanks for that direct link, Jonathan. I use iBooks a lot, and this
will come in handy, although I am not a student. It would be really
wonderful if it worked with the Kindle app. But I guess you can't have
everything.

Subject: Audio Demo of the iOS 8 Speak Screen Feature

Hi everyone, a client of mine is a student who uses iBooks a lot. He
was getting frustrated with not having a method to listen to iBooks
without locking the screen and without notifications interrupting
the book. After I showed him how this was possible using the speak
screen feature, he suggested I do an audio presentation about this
for others who didn't know about this iOS 8 benefit. A lot of
VoiceOver users think that Speak Screen has no benefits for them,
but it's a great feature. Here's my demo.
