Shirley, Tom's voice is more human sounding, his voice is our favorite voice on our phones. His Voice was used on one of the phone automated systems, but I can't remember which one that was. It may have been dish. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Shirley Baker" <[email protected]>

I have Jaws on my computer and personally, I don't have a problem with it at all. Can you change the pitch in typing mode in settings because I didn't find that anywhere. I decided to go with Tom. That voice sounds more human than some of the rest. At least if I get tired of it, I can change it to something different and glad to have that option.

I agree with your rant; and I'll add my own.
VoiceOver is free.
You get amazing accessibility, and it does not cost a cent more.
Bugs exist in all software, get over it.
If you use a Windows computer, you have to spend a heck of a lot more for good accessibility; and there are bugs there too. And, while I'm on the subject, the free screen readers for Windows do not hold a candle to VoiceOver on the iPhones or iPads.

I can understand someone not liking the voices, but folks this is it really! If we didn't have these voices or any of them, we would be in a world of hurtin'. Be greatful that you have choices. Be greatful you have VoiceOver period. Apple has made it nice for us although thereare bugs. There will always be bugs so don't expect a perfect world of technology because they are human, too. Anyway, that's my rant for today.

I really don't like any of the voices but for now, I've got Siri male. I really hate the sound of all of them except for Siri male and really hate the way Siri voices pronounce some words. Looks like they could come up with better ones.

Is this the problem with Samatha that you all are talking or is Samatha a different voice than Siri?

Someone else had the same problem and she called Apple. I also had the same problem. What we have to do is change her voice if you have the American Female that seems to be the problem. It was with the last update that some of us are having a problem with that. I changed it to the male American Apple had suggested to the other person to change it to a British voice. So it’s up to you but whatever when you change it and it should work. Apparently with the next update this should be resolved.

                   Hello all,


For some reason Siri has quit speaking. I have tried pressing the volume up after asking her a question and all that seems to do is raise the volume of the phone but not Siri. I have also tried rebooting my phone and that did not help. What else can I try to get her speaking again? I am using the latest iOS update on a iPhone 10S.





                   Thanks,


                   Greg Wocher
