Hello Marilyn, I have two suggestions for you:
1. Increase the length of time it takes for an incoming call to be sent to voicemail. In the US, the default time is set to 20 seconds. However, you can call your wireless provider customer service department and request that the time be increased up to 40 seconds. 2. During an incoming call, simply press the Volume Up button, once, located on the side of your iPhone. Doing this will silence the ring tone and allow you to touch the display screen in order to get VoiceOver to speak the caller ID of the incoming call.

Whether unknown call or the name of a person in my contacts, I fail to know what it said. Is there a solution? Marilyn -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
