Hi Erik, The gesture that turns off speech on the iphone is a double-tap with three fingers. I know it seems unlikely, but is it possible you did this by accident? It's a toggle, so the next time it happens, try doing a three-finger double-tap, and see if speech starts up again. If it does, you know what's causing your problem. Best, Donna
