I will confirm the model via my apple id, then wait until the CNIB individual is here again, since the last voice left is unsafe for my use. I know about the adapters, but as established, until I know the device is safe for use voice wise, accessories are the least of my focus.

I think it might be a 5c as I vaguely remember you telling us when you first 
got the phone. Not sure if you can delete voices and even if you could I 
don???t think I could test it as the steps might be different on IOS 10 then 
they are on 13.
As far as the lack of a  headphone jack goes on the new phones,, you do get an 
adaptor so you can still plug your old headphones into it through the charging 
port.

That is one reason why I want to dump  stuff. Alex, which apparently  works on 
this  phone takes allot of space.
I want to test voices with some knowledge, I start getting nauseous when voices 
 are  not correct.

Hi!
The 5 series can???t be updated any more.
But i don???t know if they update the voices sometimes.
Have you tried other voices such as the american voice Tom or other voices?

and a side siri one as well?
Will ask the siri one first..can it be removed once installed?
The voiceover voice  question has to do with sound quality.
I finally found a discussion thread about this with others noting the same 
thing.  Daniel who I believe is the UK English voice  changed in its enhanced 
form a while back.  I do not know if it has been  improved, or better still  
when was the last  upgrade to  the Daniel voice?
I have an iPhone in the 5 family.  it is possible    that  upgrading IOS 
itself, or the voice, if I can, will improve things.
for now though  the quality  clarity and pronunciation is rather dreadful.
I did not want siri, but apple accessibility, who was talking with the person  
helping me use the phone suggested the download because voiceover  itself was 
not working well according to them.
Siri, which was male in this case, sounded worse than the Daniel voice itself.
I believe? Nuance makes the apple voices.  Is there any way to reach them 
directly?
last of all, I understand there are other  options for voices,  with my 
wondering about direct contacts too, as I will have to walk someone else 
through  reaching them.
My situation is that since most software generated speech is in a frequency 
range that stimulates my brain's dizzy centres, experimenting can make me 
rather sick.  That is what happened when trying to resolve the Daniel / male 
siri  situation.
meaning I really want to plan ahead before testing anything further.
ideas?
Karen
