[SC-CSTD] Voices

Hey Steve,
I also updated to 16. I have an odd issue, though that seems to persist. My app switcher has basically stopped functioning. I have restarted my phone, because the first time we tried that it fixed the problem. Thus far, restarting it again, has not fixed the issue. I can perform the gesture, and here are the three clicks, but nothing happens when I have voiceover running. So, periodically, I have to turn voiceover off and close apps.

Hi Steve,

I upgraded to 16 as soon as it was available to me and it actually made my iPhone 11 Pro Max more responsive than it was with 15.7. I did try the Eloquence voice but found it too “heavy” coming from my iPhone. I switched back to the mail Siri voice which works well for me. I also noticed a slight improvement in my battery life. My phone is 3 years old with the original battery.

I did experience a crash of the Mail app and some resetting had to take place there. Then, my Outlook account sometimes would not update, causing the need to close Mail in the app switcher and then re-open Mail. It appears that this situation is improving as I use it. That is one for the mystery lovers.

My Best,

Marty

Hi All,

Just wondering, who has updated to IOS 16 and how do you like it so far? Also, have you tried the eloquence voice?

It you use Twitter, look up the Computer Science & Technology Division by searching for NFBSCCSTD
