[NFBAZ-EastValleyChapter] voice-over bug with IOS 26 update

*Subject:* Major Voiceover bug after iOS26 upgrade.



Hi,



Due to the severity of this bug, I recommend that we forward to all
students as well.

iOS 26 was just released this week. However, there is a major voiceover bug
that causes users to loose speech after the upgrade. It is reported that
speech is totally lost until the phone is unlocked. This serious
complicates matters, especially if you have a passcode on your phone.
Furthermore, it happens randomly. There is no way to duplicate the bug.

For this reason, it is recommended that people hold off on the ios 26
upgrade, until apple finds a workaround for this problem.

Thanks.
