All you have to do to prevent the "double tap to open" is to turn off hints.

I managed to get it to stop saying “Double tap to open” on the Home Page.

I can’t seem to locate an option for the Status Bar.  I want to stop VO from 
saying “Not Charging, when checking the battery status.  I only want to know 
for sure that it is charging when I plug it in.
Getting  rid of the words “Status bar item would be nice, too.”

In settings, just go to accessibility / Voice Over, then swipe down to Speech 
and double tap.
In there, swipe to pronunciation, and double tap.
This screen will contain a list of any pronunciation changes you have 
previously made, and any new ones will be added to this list.
To make a new change, just double tap the add button. The screen that comes up 
is where you enter the current word or phrase, and the new way you want it 
pronounced.
When done, just double tap on the back button to go back to the list of changes 
and your new change will be part of the list.

Hope this helps.

Subject: the power of Voiceover dictionary

I was talking to a friend Stephen Giggar some of you might remember him from 
the talks days.  He said you might be able to customize what voice over does 
and doesn't speak.   I'm posting this example to show what can be done with the 
Voiceover dictionary.
On the Status bar it says cellular 3 of 3 bars signal strength I wanted to 
change this so I did this:
Put in  in the phrase box

of 4 bars  signal strength
Replacement bars
now when swiping across the status bar it says cellular 2 bars.
I also didn’t want Status bar item spoken so I did this
In the first box I put
Status bar item
 Replacement just put in a space.

I remember the Talks days well the user’s group and blindsea site.

There are a couple of things I would say, when selecting the string you want to 
replace it’s often useful to use the Copy Last Spoken output to insert as your 
string, saves some typing!

I wish under verbosity you could configure which apps and screen areas hints 
are spoken in.

The dictionary is useful though I remember the Calendar in Symbian and creating 
strings and replacements to have UK dates spoken more correctly.

Now follow the below instructions.

1 go to settings double tap.

2 accessibility double tap.

3 go to voice over on double tap.

4 speech double tap.

5 pronunciations  double tap.

6 tap add or add new not sure what it says.

Then follow the instructions below

On the Status bar it says cellular 4 of 4 bars signal strength I wanted to 
change this so I did this:

Put in  in the phrase box

I managed to get it to stop saying “Double tap to open” on the Home Page.



I can’t seem to locate an option for the Status Bar.  I want to stop VO from 
saying “Not Charging, when checking the battery status.  I only want to know 
for sure that it is charging when I plug it in.

Getting  rid of the words “Status bar item would be nice, too.”

In settings, just go to accessibility / Voice Over, then swipe down to 
Speech and double tap.

In there, swipe to pronunciation, and double tap.

This screen will contain a list of any pronunciation changes you have 
previously made, and any new ones will be added to this list.

To make a new change, just double tap the add button. The screen that comes 
up is where you enter the current word or phrase, and the new way you want 
it pronounced.

When done, just double tap on the back button to go back to the list of 
changes and your new change will be part of the list.



Hope this helps.

  I was talking to a friend Stephen Giggar some of you might remember him 
from the talks days.  He said you might be able to customize what voice over 
does and doesn't speak.   I'm posting this example to show what can be done 
with the Voiceover dictionary.

  On the Status bar it says cellular 3 of 3 bars signal strength I wanted to 
change this so I did this:

  Put in  in the phrase box



  of 4 bars  signal strength

  Replacement bars

  now when swiping across the status bar it says cellular 2 bars.

  I also didn’t want Status bar item spoken so I did this

  In the first box I put

  Status bar item

   Replacement just put in a space.

I managed to get it to stop saying “Double tap to open” on the Home Page.  

 

I can’t seem to locate an option for the Status Bar.  I want to stop VO from 
saying “Not Charging, when checking the battery status.  I only want to know 
for sure that it is charging when I plug it in.

In settings, just go to accessibility / Voice Over, then swipe down to Speech 
and double tap.

In there, swipe to pronunciation, and double tap.

This screen will contain a list of any pronunciation changes you have 
previously made, and any new ones will be added to this list.

To make a new change, just double tap the add button. The screen that comes up

I was talking to a friend Stephen Giggar some of you might remember him from 
the talks days.  He said you might be able to customize what voice over does 
and doesn't speak.   I'm posting this example to show what can be done with the 
Voiceover dictionary.

On the Status bar it says cellular 3 of 3 bars signal strength I wanted to 
change this so I did this:

Put in  in the phrase box

 

of 4 bars  signal strength  

Replacement bars 

now when swiping across the status bar it says cellular 2 bars.

I also didn’t want Status bar item spoken so I did this

In the first box I put 

Status bar item 

 Replacement just put in a space.

Voiceover dictionary.

  On the Status bar it says cellular 3 of 3 bars signal strength I wanted to 
change this so I did this:

  Put in  in the phrase box

   

  of 4 bars  signal strength  

  Replacement bars 

  now when swiping across the status bar it says cellular 2 bars.

  I also didn’t want Status bar item spoken so I did this

  In the first box I put 

  Status bar item 

   Replacement just put in a space.

RE: the power of Voiceover dictionary

2022-01-02 Thread Karen Poulakos 
This is interesting.  Where did you find the dictionary in order to do this?  I 
looked in the Voiceover settings, and couldn’t find any listing for a 
dictionary. 

 

Can you please describe the steps you used?

 

Thanks.

Subject: the power of Voiceover dictionary

 

I was talking to a friend Stephen Giggar some of you might remember him from 
the talks days.  He said you might be able to customize what voice over does 
and doesn't speak.   I'm posting this example to show what can be done with the 
Voiceover dictionary.

On the Status bar it says cellular 3 of 3 bars signal strength I wanted to 
change this so I did this:

Put in  in the phrase box

 

of 4 bars  signal strength  

Replacement bars 

now when swiping across the status bar it says cellular 2 bars.

I also didn’t want Status bar item spoken so I did this

In the first box I put 

Status bar item 

 Replacement just put in a space.
