Re: iPhone counting up when on a call

[Barbara Stahl]

I am far less concerned with this bug as opposed to the one where it takes three or four tries for voiceover to read me my notifications on the lock screen that one is extremely super annoying to me On Mar 4, 2026, at 1:47 PM, bentleyj1...@gmail.com wrote:  Around 6 months ago, an Apple tech support person told me that Apple does have a lot of request asking that the count up problem be resolved. A lot of us are still hoping.

Considering how many visually impaired people use the iPhone, it should be thousands and maybe if everybody did complain it would already be fixed!   From: viphone@googlegroups.com <viphone@googlegroups.com> On Behalf Of bentleyj1...@gmail.com Sent: Wednesday, March 4, 2026 10:35 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: iPhone counting up when on a call   Yes sir.  I have also respectfully complained  with Apple tech support.  I know of 4 or 5 others who have done the same. Still no joy.

But, they always take care of it eventually. Try using Android if you think Apple is so bad.       Richard, USA, he only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance." -- Alan Watts (1915-1973)   My web site: https://www.turner42.com     From: viphone@googlegroups.com <viphone@googlegroups.com> On Behalf Of bentleyj1...@gmail.com Sent: Wednesday, March 4, 2026 8:31 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: iPhone counting up when on a call   Sometimes, you need the screen turned on so you can use the phone during a call. And yes, it sure does seem like Apple doesn’t view problems with accessibility as seriously as we do.
