There is a similar issue with the UK British male voice, it now sounds a
little wobbly, that's the best way I can explain it, even now the high
quality voice is down the sound is less solid and refined than it used to
be.

Hi folks.

With a developer account, I've had time to playaround with iOS 7 on my
iPhone 4S over a month now.
After updating to iOS 7, I found that the norwegian voice have changed, and
to a new and quite unusable one.

I immediatly reached out to the accessibility team at apple to report this
mistake, and they said they couldn't help with unreleased software, so they
"forwarded" me to the bug reporting tool on the developer page, wich is not
that VoiceOver friendly.

I managed to report a bug regarding the voice, and nothing have happened
since.

Yesterday, when I confirmed that the update was available, I sendt away a
mail again to the accessibility team regarding this, and after a few mails,
they said they forwarded my request to get back the old voice to the speech
team.

 

Since norwegians are few, I encourage norwegian VO-users to report the voice
issue to apple.

Also I was able to speak about the problem in the media.

You can read the article here:

For non-scandinavian, just use Google Translate.

 

Are there someone here who can help in any way?

We over here would be very thankful if so.

 

 

Best regards David
