RE: Apple Watch no longer speaks or makes sounds
Right. That's what I had been doing countless times, and that wasn't working. It was only that hard reboot suggestion that worked. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com On Behalf Of Kay Malmquist Sent: Sunday, July 23, 2023 5:05 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Apple Watch no longer speaks or makes sounds Go in to your watch app on your phone and turn off voice over and then turn it back on again.

Re: Apple Watch no longer speaks or makes sounds
Malcolm, Thank you very much. I don’t know why it didn’t occur to me to try and do a hard reset on the watch. I think that is what it is called. Anyway, it worked like a charm. Thanks again.

Re: Apple Watch no longer speaks or makes sounds
Hi, This is a common problem and is best solved by pressing both the power button and the Digital Crown and holding them both in for around ten seconds. Release them both and in a short while your watch should be talking again.
