I don't very often put sounds on as I find them rather irritating so
haven't realised until now about the tones you get. I must take a look.
Thanks!

Hi List,
I’m surprised none of you with sensitive ears have brought this up,
but in iOS 11 when you press the home button to close an app and
return to the home screen, the little tone you hear now plays twice.
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.
Regards,
Sieghard
