Are the chimes different between the lite and full versions? I just installed the lite version and the chimes sound a bit synthetic to me. . Richard

I also have one called "hourly chime" but the other two chimes make it unnecessary for me as I recall. -- Cheryl May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable to You, Lord, my rock and my Redeemer.

I have the Gclock app, and it causes the phone to be rather sluggish, or rather, VoiceOver to be rather sluggish. Thanks, Richard _____ From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Cheryl Homiak Sent: Tuesday, September 25, 2012 8:35 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Time chime apps I am using Westminster Chimes (not the lite version but the oter one) which has more than one style to choose from and can be set as far as how much of the day and how often it chimes; the chimes are really nice not synthetic or tinny sounding. Then I use the "chime" app and have it set to voice so that I also get the time announced. As I recall, besides setting up in the app, you may have to do something in notifications for one or both of them, so if it doesn't work immediately you should experiment. I really like both of them. -- Cheryl May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable to You, Lord, my rock and my Redeemer.

But I didn't seem to get the hq voice until I reset my iPhone even though I waited a while and tried turning compact voice on and off first. But don't do this unless you have access to iTunes because I can confirm that if you reset you won't be able to turn on voiceover by yourself even if you try tripple click home! I knew the problem wasn't a sound problem or that the phone wasn't on because my time chime apps that I have set up were going off and announcing the time. Unless there are unforseen problems, I'm staying with the Australian voice. Now i don't even need the language rotor unless i decide to experiment with having it talk Spanish. -- Cheryl May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable to You, Lord, my rock and my Redeemer.

One is language, where there unfortunately isn't an option for Australian English. Another is voice control, and there you can change either for Siri or just for phone dialing. Finally, there's the one for format and that's the one i am trying. It does change the default voice. I hope i'll be able to tell the difference if it has downloaded the hq voice. My only problem with the Australian voice is that there's a slight but very annoying hiss or interference sound as the voice starts and stops speaking a word or phrase. I'm hoping this is only in the compact voice since I really like the Australian voice better than either the compact or hq Samantha which I tolerate but will never love (apologies to those who like Samantha). -- Cheryl May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable to You, Lord, my rock and my Redeemer.
