Janet, have you tried this with changing voices with voice over turned off? We had a simular situation about 3 years ago, and our friend was able to take care of it with voice over off. ----- Original Message ----- From: janet gross To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Wednesday, April 28, 2021 8:44 PM Subject: RE: Changing Voiceover help please.
Hi Mike, Thank you for this, but I’ve been doing that all day trying to get rid of this Siri 4, and I’ve shared screens with Apple, as they wanted to watch the steps I was doing, and they said yes I was doing it the right way, but still no go. I can’t even select Tom or Fred, and I already have them downloaded. It also shows Samantha is selected as my default. For some odd reason, this Siri 4 is stuck! LOL! I never had any problems changing voices before until now. The Apple rep said he will report this to the engineers, and call me back this coming Friday at 3:30 central time. I’m hoping he will have a fix for this, as I can’t stand Siri 4!

Hi Janet, Try the following: 1. Open Settings / Accessibility / VoiceOver 2. Swipe to, Speech, and do a single finger double tap to open. You should hear something like, Voice Siri voice number.... button. Do a single finger double tap to open this. 3. Swipe to, Samantha and do a single finger double tap to open. Now swipe to, Samantha and do a single finger double tap to select, and Samantha is now your VoiceOver voice. Note: In this same folder you'll probably have an option for Samantha enhanced if you want to download and try it. To get to it just swipe passed the first Samantha option. Stay safe and take care. Mike. ----- Original Message ----- From: janet gross To: 'viphone@googlegroups.com' Sent: Wednesday, April 28, 2021 1:59 PM Subject: Changing Voiceover help please. Hi Everyone, I recently updated my XR 10 phone to iOS 14.5, and I also changed Voiceover voice from Samantha to Siri 4, I don't like the Siri 4, and I want to change back to Samantha, but can't find any way to do this. I did go back in to the speech settings, and I set Samantha back as the default, but Siri 4 is still speaking. Can someone please tell me how I might change back to Samantha from Siri 4. Thank you all in advance. Janet Peace Be With You. -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
