Sorry, I was just assuming Apple was paying some royalties to Nuance
to use their voices, so just like any other customer, they'd have
the right to raise the issue with their supplier. I also assume
Nuance gets quite a bit of mileage out of having their voices on
such a popular device, so again, I'd think that would give Apple
some influence with Nuance. Apple could also go to another company
if they didn't think Nuance was providing the quality they expect
from their suppliers and want to include in their devices. If Apple
includes substandard parts in their devices then yes I think they
have some responsibility for that decision.
You're right though, I can't prove anything, and I don't know the
details of Apple's deal with Nuance, so I was wrong for bringing it up.

Unless you know that Apple has input into this whole deal, or you
can prove that the exact same voices are used elsewhere and don't
have this problem, I don't think you can blame Apple for the crappy
voices. Where Apple could improve would be either to insist that
nuance up their game, which would be nice. And they could, spoken
from a non-programming point of you of course, open it up, so that
we can use voice is obtained through other sources, such as voice dream reader.

You're right, but Apple chooses to use and upgrade these voices,
and I'm sure they also have some influence with Nuance, so I think
it's fair to let Apple share some of the responsibility.

Apple gets these voices from Neuance. When an update comes out, Apple
updates the voices, so it isn't really Apple's fault. I do know what you
mean about Samantha. I use Alex, or Fred.

Hello Dan, I echo what you are saying. The quality of voices are
very poor with this new update. One often wonders why they touch
what isn't broken. The voices were not bad before they should just
have left it alone. Just my opinion.

Hi,
I am wondering if this is really the case or if it is just my phone.
I am using a Iphone 6. I am running the new IOS 10.
Even back in IOS 9 on an Iphone 5 I noticed that even high quality
voices had a sort of hissy or fuzzy quality to them. I found
that the lower quality Siri voice actually sounded better than the
high quality voice.
With IOS 10 the problem is still there and may actually be worse.
I have downloaded several of the new voices trying to find one
that sounded clearer but there doesn't seem to be one.
Am I alone in this?
