Hi Mark, VoiceOver does speak the estimated time for me, but I have not yet upgraded to IOS 13, and have not updated the Uber app for a couple of weeks.
I would be interested to know if others are seeing this behavior either with IOS 13 and/or with the latest Uber update. If so, I would not want to upgrade or update the app until that is fixed. Sorry, I have no input on your second question as I have never tried that. Pam ________________________________________ From: [email protected] [[email protected]] on behalf of M.

Try as I may, I could not get VoiceOver to read the estimated time of pick-up, even though it was clearly being updated on the screen. For example, the display was saying 5 minutes away, 3 minutes, away, etc. Question: Am I missing something? Can VoiceOver not read this area of the display? If not, it is quite a shame. Perhaps there is an Apple Watch complication that will update as the car gets closer to the pickup location? Question 2: Has anyone been able to schedule a ride, in advance, say 2 hours in the future, using the Uber app for iOS? I have read, on the Uber website that this is a feature of the app but, try as I may, I cannot get the feature to display, either with or without VoiceOver being enabled. The only way, so far, that I can even see the feature is to logon to the Uber website, itself; and I have no intention of using the website to schedule rides, if I can avoid it. All replies greatly appreciated. Mark -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
