No joke Sieghard.
I looked at the accessibility settings on an Android the other night
that a friend had, and paid very little for, since it was through Virgin
Mobile. Right off, there were 3 options, none of which indicated anything you
could intuitively select. I hand it to Apple that at least things listed in
settings are usually fairly obvious, plus they have the explanation under the
item to be selected or turned off.
I can't tell you how many times I ask Seeri to dial a person, and I get
that she can look it up on line for me. I'm talking about persons who are in my
Contact App.
Between the added fussing on the iPhone and the crappy response I am
getting through my current server,Verizon, I might experiment with cheaper
options, and see what I get for a fraction of the cost.
The kind of dictation issue I have is when the voice over instruction
to double tap with a single finger... gets plugged in when I start dictating.
These seem like such easy issues to resolve, but then what would I know about
that?

There are lots of dictation tips and tricks, but some of them never work for
me. For example, if I dicate to SIRI something like this:
Buy 6 bananas SIRI always or usually writes the number six as a word and not
the number 6.
I read you should say the word "numeral" in front of a number if you want this
number to be written as a number. I tried this and got "Buy numeral six
bananas".
And I can't believe you still can't say "spell this" or another trigger word
and then get SIRI to spell out a word which I know for sure it will get wrong
otherwise. I mean, it's been 8 years since SIRI and dictation were introduced,
come on Apple.

Sent from my iPhone hello everyone I am having a problem using the dictation
on the iPhone. I’m using an iPhone 6. When I try to give out any email
address it just is not coming out the way it supposed to you’ll get a letter
off when I try and give it even after I tried spelling my email address and
I’m wondering if anyone else is having this problem.
