If I get a new phone on a different carrier from my current one, and restore
the new phone from the ICloud backup, will the ICloud backup attempt to change
the new phone to the old carrier? I don't think so, but I want to know before I

Hello all,
I'm looking for books on beginner's Spanish. I want to see the written words
which I thought Voice Dream might work for. I know there will be accent
marks, but if a text is designed for both text alone or for text and audio
both, this might work. The translater on my iphone is great,
The great thing is we have a lot of great voices to choose from. I
also like British Kate, as well as Australian Karen and Lee.

If you set your VoiceOver voice to the default voice, it should change
automatically.
If you have multiple voices installed and are not using what shows as the
default voice, it will not change automatically.

No, which carrier you have is strictly a result of the SIM card you put in. Put
in a Verizon and that's what it is, put in a T-Mobil and it's T-Mobil.

I have multiple language voices installed and, yes, VoiceOver recognises that
an Italian novel in Apple Books is to be read out in Italian - but a book in

I would check with Bookshare.
They are getting more and more text books for elementary school through
advanced degrees.
You might even want to call them and ask about beginning Spanish text books.
I know they have lots of books in Spanish.

For Spanish, I use Juan
I was following the discussion of voices and which ones work at higher speech
rates and decided to try a screen recording to get a sample of Tom Enhanced at
higher speech rates since that is my preferred voice.

The text is all there and you can change font size and colour if you have
enough sight to use those features. Some of the books even have embedded audio

I thought of switching my phone to Spanish but am terrified I won't understand
much. I understand that anything read will be read in English since that is the
language my phone is set to. What I want to see is the spelling of words in

Julie is a pretty good voice. I've got her as one of my boices for
voice dream reader. I think some of the child voices from acapela are
interesting. They would make interesting voice over voices.

You can download Spanish verb conjugations and phrases from the web (save
Safari web pages in Books) and turn the rotor t Language and get VoiceOver to
read them out in Spanish?
Just a thought
