RE: Compact voice on iPad

2012-10-02 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi,

 

You can download the HQ voice on an iPad or iPod Touch just as you can on an
iPhone. Just make sure your iPad is plugged in and leave it plugged in, of
course WiFi has to be turned on as well. Only other explanation I can think
of why you might not get the HQ voice is because you are still on iOS 4.

 

 

Regards,

Sieghard

Hi,

 

on the iPad, one always has the compact voice, as far as I know. How is that
with the iPod touch?

 

I have to know, because I want to buy one, only to have iOs5 hq voice.

Hi,

I don’t have an iPad, but I often hear iPad owners complain that hq voice is 
only on their phones and not on the iPad, that’s why I asked.

Re: Compact voice on iPad

2012-10-02 Thread Garth Humphreys
There was a strange bug with iOS 5 where the HQ voice was always the US voice 
Samantha. Even though you would have the default voice and region set to 
another one. With all the iPads I tested I found this same behaviour under iOS 
5 This was o all 3 generations of the iPad. It was weird i that even if you 
didn't have the US voice enabled for the rotor, the Use compact voice toggle 
would still appear in settings and would appear to do nothing. For me in 
Australia I had the default voice set to my own region but never was abled to 
get the HQ Karen voice. I was confused when I first got my new iPad because it 
seemed like the use compact toggle did nothing, than when I added the US vice 
to the rotor I noticed that it was this voice which was the HQ one.

Obviously the nature of the bug meant that those of you in the US would never 
have noticed this issue. 

In any case this bug has now been corrected under iOS6.  It was with delight 
that I got the HQ Karen voice on my iPad shortly after updating it.

They say the Dutch hq voice is still not on the iPad, with iOs6.
Not a great loss, for no one will use it the way it is now.
