I did think that with screen share, they could see what we do. 

Anyway, I am overjoyed to have Announce Callers fixed. I mean, with this phone, 
it is like someone through my settings up in the air and just slung them back 
together any old way.

Subject: RE: Announce incoming calls not working.

My experience has been that they work very well with me calling on my iPhone.
Then, when they do a screen share, they can see where I am touching the screen 
to make sure I am hitting what I need to hit.

They kind of like it, when we're on another line.

Is your home phone line different than your iPhone?
I'd call them from your iPhone.

        It is not working for me. I just now turned Siri to Announce calls 
Always, still not working. I wonder if it will not work on the 16, since my son 
has a 16, and his is not working.

        I have never had a problem of announce incoming calls working with 
VoiceOver on.
        IN fact, I just had a call a couple of minutes ago and it told me who 
was calling.
        There may be a setting in notifications that needs to be on, and also, 
for Siri.
        I can double check if it still isn't working what settings I have.

        Hi Carolyn, I know exactly the setting you're missing. Go and adjust 
the setting that says announce incoming calls. Make sure that is turned on. 
Then once it's turned on if you can call yourself and make sure that it works 
that'll be good too. I will note, this only really works, if you have VoiceOver 
off when you're not using VoiceOver.

                I have no idea why my settings are all screwed up on the new 
phone, 
                

                but here is a problem:
                

                
                

                Announce Incoming Callers does not work. 
                

                
                

                I have turned phone off and on. 
                

                
                

                I have incoming calls set to come on with Full Screen. 
                

                
                

                I turned to Never, then back to Announce callers. 
                

                
                

                Nothing is working. Please, does anyone have any ideas? 
                

                
                

                I got such a terrible connection with Apple Accessibility, that 
I 
                

                could not hear the lady, who was willing to try to help. It 
sounded 
                

                like my home phone was in a bucket of water.
                

                
                

                So, anyone have an idea how to get calls to be announced, like 
they 
                

                always have been in the past. Thanks.
