Hello Tim and Everyone,

Exactly which setting in VoiceOver Verbosity does one toggle in order to 
disable the “possible” text announcement?

I did not see any obvious choices on my iPad.

Hi,

It's just VO taking a guess at an unlabelled item.  VO is analyzing the screen, 
when it finds something that is unlabelled, it will check close by to see if 
the developer is expecting the user to know what something is by what's in the 
vicinity and give a guess.  It's saying "Possible" because it's just an 
educated guess.  As Devin mentioned, turn it off in your Verbosity settings.

Later...

You can turn this off in verbosity settings.

After upgrading to 13.1, voiceover is always saying "possible text "at the most 
inconvenient times. When I am reading in voice dream reader or voice stream 
writer for example. What is this "possible text "message coming from and is 
there anything I can do to prevent it? It seems to say possible text followed 
by a few letters or even a word or two. And it is someone random in not always 
predictable when it will happen. Any help greatly appreciate it.
