Kathy,

To select the female Siri voice, go to Settings, Siri, Siri Voice, make sure 
American is selected under the Accent heading, and make sure female is selected 
under the Gender heading.

To check the voices you have selected, go to Settings, General, Accessibility, 
Voiceover, Speech, Voice to select the default Voiceover voice such as Samantha 
enhanced. Below this setting, you might also want to add new languages where 
you can choose other English accents but can also choose US English where you 
can assign another voice such as Alex to US English to make it easier to swap 
voices on the fly using the language option in the rotor.

HTH.

Subject: How can I switch my voices back

For a long time, I have used Samantha as the default voice on my iPhone 
6+.  The Siri voice was set to male. A couple of days ago, I was looking
at the new voice settings in the latest version of IOS 10.  Somehow I switched 
to male for the default voice and Samantha for Siri. I have searched all over 
the screens in Accessibility and Speech. Even when Samantha is selected the 
voice does not change back, and I can find no way to make the change take 
effect. What am I missing?


Thanks for any help.
