You can use more then one comma in the chain such as in 5 5 5 dash zero one two 
three four comma comma seven eight nine.  I have several such dialing strings 
in my contacts on my iPhone.

  Subject: Selecting from automated telephone menus using IphoneVoice Over


  Dear List is there a way to use a press 1 to do this press 2 to do that menu 
using an Iphone with voice over? As soon as the main number starts ringing 
voice over reduces in volume and there seems to be no access to the number pad  
to make selections. I remember that in anser to a question about dialing 
extensions someone suggested using commas to cause a pause in the touch tones, 
but your more likely to know someone's extension than you are the numbers you 
need to select from a menu.  My carriers customer service line involves a 
series of layered menus about six in total. The only way I can think of to get 
around this is to dial the main number, remember  the number to select from the 
first menu, hang up   ,add a comma and that digit to the original number, then 
redial to get access to the second menu,remember the number I need to make the 
selection, hang up, add a comma and this digit to the original number and 
redial etc six times, and even that assumes that the comma will put in the 
right length of pause to make the menu work.  Am I missing something, is it 
really this painful? If it is I don't understand why it can't be rigged so that 
if you touch the touch screen within a certain interval of the phone ringing 
voice over raises in volume just to give you the keypad but shuts up again as 
soon as you stop touching it. What happens if you hit a number on a blue tooth 
keyboard while the phone is making a call? I would be grateful for any advice.

   

  Many Thanks, Lee

  The page mumbers in Bookshare books are often braille numbers. VDR and other 
apps have their own paging systems, so they will rarely if ever sync with what 
the text claims. Voices are still paid, though you can now use the HQ voices 
offered to VO users in iOS 7 for free.

    I am using an Iphone 4s and the latest updates. Also voiceover.

     

    I am reading Bookshare books with Voice Dream Reader.

     

    As VO moves through the text, it will announce page numbers.  However, when 
I stop reading, and verify the stats on the app, it tells me  I am on a 
different page than what VO announced. Why is this?

     

    Also,  I am still confused as to whether you can add new voices for free 
now that the new Apple IOS updates are on, or do you still have to purchase new 
voices through the store?

     

    Thank You
