The option to have a tone played instead of Voiceover saying “Cap” is in a new settings group called Verbocity. This of course is in Voiceover Settings right after “Speech” and it is now where the “Speak Hints” and “Punctuation” options are and a whole bunch more choices.

It plays when you press the home button, then Voiceover speaks the name of the app you are on and immediately afterwards the little tone plays again. I find it mildly annoying although I’m sure I get used to it. I just emailed Apple Accessibility about it because as far as I am concerned that is a bug unless theytell me it’s by design. If the latter then I wonder why, on the one hand they got rid of the “Screen Locked” announcement in iOS 10 and replaced with a fairly unremarkable sound which I personally like, on the other hand now in iOS 11 they introduce extra noise. And since we are on the topic of noise, how many have enabled to hear a tone for upper case letter instead of Voiceover saying “Caps”? I like the idea, but I find the brassy tone they have assigned to this quite abbrasive and think it would be nice if they replaced it with something more pleasant like maybe a raindrop sort of sound or, even better of course, let them give us a choice of 3 or 4 tones for this.
