Hi Joe, Do you know about Restrictions in the iPhone settings? It won't give you a report on usage, but you can set it up to limit how a child uses their phone. It can keep them from seeing explicit material, for example, or keep them from buying apps or in-app purchases. Best, Anna > On

255 words per minute is a comfortable rate for me with the NeoSpeech voices. I can actually probably go a bit higher than that, considering that my voiceOver rate is a bit faster than that, but it's slow enough for me to read comfortably, while at the same time not being too slow. Thanks, Ari
