Re: Uber app kills Voice Over on my iPhone
I had an equivalent problem with the Transit app. After scrolling through 4/5 busstops, VoiceOver would completely stop for that app. Killing the app I would then get VoiceOver to speak again. I will try deleteing the app and reinstalling.

Re: Uber app kills Voice Over on my iPhone
For the record the problem has resolved itself sometime over the past 48 hours. I hate problems that resolve themselves because one never learns anything from such situations. :) On the other hand, this was a serious showstopper when it was a problem. It made my iPhone useless while the problem was manifesting. I'm so glad I have a fallback Android phone which usefully mirrors the Uber data in realtime in the Android Uber app. Brad Snyder writes: > You might want to try restarting VoiceOver. > You can do this by asking Siri to turn VoiceOver off, then asking Siri to > turn VoiceOver back on. > Sometimes cycling VoiceOver off and then back on corrects all kinds of issues. > > - Brad - > > > > On Dec 24, 2023, at 09:21, 'Janina Sajka' via MacVisionaries > wrote: > > The only restart I know is long press of the power button followed by > double tap on screen, as Power Off is the default action on the menu > there.

Re: Uber app kills Voice Over on my iPhone
You might want to try restarting VoiceOver. You can do this by asking Siri to turn VoiceOver off, then asking Siri to turn VoiceOver back on. Sometimes cycling VoiceOver off and then back on corrects all kinds of issues. - Brad - On Dec 24, 2023, at 09:21, 'Janina Sajka' via MacVisionaries wrote: The only restart I know is long press of the power button followed by double tap on screen, as Power Off is the default action on the menu there.

Re: Uber app kills Voice Over on my iPhone
The only restart I know is long press of the power button followed by double tap on screen, as Power Off is the default action on the menu there. Note I also have no VO on this menu.
