I suspect when they acquired the app, they expected a larger revenue stream with the existing customer base having to cough up an annual sub fee. As that turned out not to be the case. Maybe maintaining the app hasn’t been as much of a priority or they’re just going cheap on quality control.

Actually fixed in 5.1.3 It is not From the Blind. As far as I know, there are no blind app developers at the Applause Group who purchased Voice Dream LLC from Winston Chen. Winston was also sighted, but made better use of beta testers but couldln't kcouldn't keep the app up as the only developer and was worried if he dropped dead, the app would die. So, now there is a team working on it. Sadly, they seem to go two steps forward and 1 to 3 steps backward at times.

Actually fixed in 5.1.3 That's great! It does indeed now work as it should, i.e. whether Voice Dream is in focus or the background.

Yes, it appears that function has returned in 5.1.3. I found it disheartening when the previous version did not do as described. I even took a look at Speech Central and Dolphin Easy Reader. I won't have to learn either app as Voice Dream seems to be functional. On Sunday, March 16, 2025 at 5:57:32 AM UTC-4 Dennis Long wrote: VDR seems to be going downhill lately.

You are right. They clearly screwed this up more than they realized. I suggest you open VDR, double tap settings, and then email support. Give them a detailed description and maybe, just maybe they will fix it correctly.

Two finger double tap only works if I am on the VD app page. As soon as I change to another page, weather for instance, two finger double tap no longer plays/pauses, but goes back to the beginning of the current sentence. I have the 5.1.2 update and am running ios 18.3.2 on an iphone 11.
