FW: FW: voice keeps changing on phone; Follow-up: 744444969

2020-08-27 Thread Richard Turner
Hello all,
I forwarded an Email conversation to Apple about the voice changing silliness 
after a client was getting the royal run-around from Apple.
Here is there predictable and reasonable response.  Please, if you are 
experiencing this, keep contacting them and if you happen to be using a beta, 
report it through the feedback app.

Hello Rich,

Thank you for your email. We wanted to let you know that Apple is investigating 
the behavior. Moving forward, we ask that the customers who are experiencing 
the specific behaviors or issues to contact us directly as we cannot collect 
additional details from an email group.

Sincerely,

Apple Accessibility

RE: voice keeps changing on phone

2020-08-22 Thread janet gross
HI Richard and All, 
I have been having the exact same problem going back and forth with male Siri 
and Samantha and it drives me crazy!  I removed the male Siri from the rotor, 
but Siri just keeps coming back, no matter what I do.  I never know when I turn 
on my phone, what voice is going to be talking.  Maybe the male Siri, maybe 
Samantha, who knows!  I don't think Apple even knows what to do anymore, as 
I've called them many times regarding this consistent issue as well as others, 
but still no go!  So, I wish well to anyone else who might be having this 
problem.  

Janet

Please, everyone dealing with this,  write or call Apple Accessibility.
I've been working with someone who has an iPhone 11.  Because of her hearing, 
she needs the Siri Male voice to be her VoiceOver voice as well as the Siri 
voice.
I even walked through with her yesterday and deleted Samantha from the rotor 
voices, and made sure Siri Male was checked for Siri's voice, for spoken 
content Speech, and for VoiceOver default voice.
No rotor languages were selected, so I thought, finally, we are done with this 
nonsense.

This morning, she wrote and said Samantha was back.

Apple is telling her it is a software issue, not hardware, but 13.6.1 did not 
solve it and I have an ugly feeling that 14 won't either.

Thanks,



Richard

Hi Richard.  I have an iphone 11 Pro and my voice keeps changing.  It’s the 
same as your client I just like the Siri male voice to work cinsistently, it 
only seems to happen when I restart my phone or if I’m using a braille display 
and I turn the speech back on after turning off my display.

Hi everyone. I'm using IOS 13.6.1. Has anyone noticed after the update that the 
voice goes from say Siri male to siri female? Then after awhile it changes back 
to Siri male. I went to track a package and it tched me from Siri male to siri 
female. Now I can't seem to get it back to stay with my male siri voice. It's 
very strange. Just wondering if any of you have experienced these oddities and 
what to do about it aside from reporting it to Apple Accessibility which I will 
do. Thanks.

My client has done that, in fact, a couple weeks ago while an Apple

complete the voice downloads, but it keeps happening.

RE: voice keeps changing on phone

2020-08-18 Thread Richard Turner
Are you talking about the VoiceOver voice being set to Siri voice?
I have a client with an iPhone 11, running iOS 13.6 not the update yet, whose 
VoiceOver voice had been set to Siri Male, and it keeps changing to female.
She has spent tons of hours with Apple Accessibility and only gotten an answer 
of it’s a software problem that might be fixed in the update ... apparently not.
She prefers when she asks Siri a question that it use the female voice, but her 
regular use of VoiceOver, she prefers the male Siri.

Which phone do you have?
