Hi Cara, I can see how maybe Voiceover sounds should be linked to the Mute switch as was the case before iOS 7, but I think I remember several posts where people actually thought it was nice that now this was no longer the case and that one could mute the phone (ringer and alerts) yet still get Voiceover sounds.
As for having Voiceover linked to the mute switch, I don't think you'll find too much support for that. In any case, it's not really a big deal to press power or home to bring up the lock screen and then to turn speech off with a 3-finger double tap which always has and still works fine.

I basically need to do several more steps now to toggle the sounds off (even with sounds in the rotor) whereas before, I could simply flip the mute switch. For myself, when I have my mute switch set to mute, I really want that actually to mean that things are muted. :) Not to mean that now there are a whole other set of sounds still going on. IN fact, since we're on the subject, I'd also wish I could have my VoiceOver speech obey the mute switch as well. For my uses, it is just more steps to do the same thing. So while I'm glad that people are happy with the extra settings, for myself, I'd prefer it to obey the mute setting. Sometimes having more settings just to have more settings is not always a desirable or sane thing to do. :) Now, I chose not to beta test, this cycle, but you can be sure I won't make that mistake again. :) Just my thoughts.

I currently have my ringer turned on, with the VoiceOver sounds turned off, so I'm just hearing the normal iPhone clicks. I'm kind of used to hearing both the iPhone clicks and the VO sounds as well, so I am more or less trying to play around with the different settings. What do you think of these settings, and how do you prefer to have your phone set? Thanks.
