I would like to have the choice to disable the speaking of messages while on the phone, but I don't mind the sound which is played when an alert pops up. For now what I do is turn VO speech off until I disconnect the call. This achieves the same purpose.

I totally agree that I would rather have the choice then not to have it. I can foresee instants when both would be useful. ------- Regards, Alan Go Chicago Bears in 2013!

For what it's worth, I completely agree with Sieghard here. I think there should be a setting to turn off any automatic reading of VoiceOver or a gesture to do this. Perhaps this could be a rotor setting to make this available on demand. I see both sides of this issue. I understand we need to hear VO alert us of important incoming announcements while at the same time we need a way for VO to stay out of the way at times, as well. Thanks and have a great day y'all!

Just remember after the call is over to do the 3 finger double tap to turn speech back on. HTH ------- Regards, Alan Go Chicago Bears in 2013!

Hi Tessa. Just touch the screen with 2 fingers and that should shut vo off.
