Hi Alan,

It just so happened that it was a few minutes before 8 just now on Friday 
morning when I read your message. I finished the messages and then checked the 
time at which point it was 8:07 and my enhanced Samantha voice did announce the 
time after I pressed the home button to wake up the phone as 8 O 7.
Not sure why she doesn’t for you, I also find I can still hear if a sentence is 
done and ended with a period.
Have you rebooted your phone after doing the update? You might want to give 
that a try.
I am using iOS 10 public beta, but I just checked on my wife’s iPhone which is 
running the latest iOS 9.3 update and it also says the time correctly as 8 O 7.


Regards,
Sieghard

Subject: Anyone Else Noticed Recent VoiceOver Changes?

I'm curious if anyone else has noticed a couple of VoiceOver changes that I 
became aware of in the past couple of days. I updated my iPhone 6 to iOS 9.3.4 
last night but I noticed these changes while still running iOS 9.3.3.

The first change is minor and concerns how VO speaks the minutes when 
announcing the time when they are less than 10 after the hour. I feel certain 
that before a couple of days ago, VO would say the o for zero before announcing 
the minute. For example if the time were 8:05 a.m., VO would say 8 oh 5 a.m. 
Now, VO is saying 8 5 a.m. Like I said, no big deal but I'm curious why they 
would change such a thing and I'm wondering if anyone else noticed it.

The other issue is more annoying. When VO is reading my texts and emails I've 
composed back to me, the pause indicating punctuation such as a period at the 
end of a sentence seems to have greatly decreased or disappeared altogether. 
I've had to double check on more than one occasion to ensure that I included a 
period because VO read my text as if the sentences were typed without one. I've 
reviewed my VoiceOver settings to make sure nothing has been added to control 
this and could not find anything. Has anyone else noticed this?

I'm using the Samantha high quality voice for VoiceOver if this makes a 
difference.

Thanks in advance for your comments.
