Hi Alan, I think it was Rajmund who mentioned punctuation and I just confirmed that that is your problem. I added punctuation to the Rotor since I believe that is the only place where you can change it, and I confirmed that I had it set to “Some”. The other two choices are “Non” and “All”. As soon as I set it to “Non” Voiceover said “we fee” instead of WiFi and it didn’t announce the percent sign with battery percentage which I guess would make sense since the percent sign is punctuation. It also just announced the time as “3 1” and not 3 O 1”, again it makes sense since the time is displayed as 3 then a colon and the 01, without punctuation Voiceover leaves out the leading zero. Also, if you spell the WiFi are in the status bar letter by letter you will find that it is spelled with a hyphen as in “Wi-Fi”. I guess if punctuation is set to some it realizes that there is a hyphen and it pronounces it correctly but it won’t pronounce the hyphen. If you set it to all it will actually say “Wi hyphen Fi”. If you have set it to None that would probably also explain the lack of a pause at the end of a sentence. Not sure how it would have changed from “Some” which I believe is the default, to “None” although if you have Punctuation in the rotor it’s probably easy to accidently change it. Just try it by setting it back to “Some” and I’m sure the proper world order will be restored *smile*.

Rob, Thanks for the suggestion but turning off the use pitch change setting didn’t' affect my issue. In the status bar, I'm still getting my number of bars pronounced as weefee instead of WyFie, the o being omitted from a time announcement where the minutes are less than 10 after, and the percentage being omitted from the battery charge.

I have not yet updated from iOS 9.3.3 to 9.3.4. On 9.3.3, my phone does announce eleven o 5. The only thing I have set that may be different from your settings is that I have turned off Use Pitch Change setting. You might want to try turning this setting off to see if it makes a difference. You can find the setting in Settings General Accessibility VoiceOver.

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.
