Yeah, I suspect its your region setting causing the issue. I have mine set to Australia, as I'm currently living in Australia. You used to need your region set to Australia if you wanted the premium Australian English voice, but that's no longer necessary in iOS 7 so you're probably best to swap

I will try. Thing is, it has always been set that way. This did not happen until after 7.03. On Oct 25, 2013, at 9:17 AM, Ricardo Walker wrote: > Hi, > > I think the regional setting might be causing the issue. Did you try > changing that to U.S.? > > Ricardo Walker > rica...@appletothecore.

I have Siri set to US English, because I prefer the male voice, but the default language set to Australian for VoiceOver, but not sure about the global language for the iPhone; I have regional set to Australian, I think. Is there another language setting I am missing somewhere? On Oct 25, 2013,

Does it have something to do with your language setting? The VoiceOver language, the global iPhone language or the Siri language? Do you have all three set to US English? On 25/10/2013, at 5:23 AM, Jamie Pauls wrote: That is exactly what I am doing. Very strange. Sent from my iPhone > On Oct

When I said “period” in other contexts before this update, it would put the symbol in, and I had to write in the word. Now it never puts in the symbol unless I say “full stop”. Again, this is straight dictation, though, not Siri. On Oct 24, 2013, at 9:34 AM, Jamie Pauls wrote: > I am using voi

Until I updated to iOS 7.03 last night, I always said “period” when ending a sentence when dictating. Today, I noticed, (luckily before sending a message) that the word “period” was there instead of the symbol. This was rather annoying, until I surmised that perhaps I should say “full stop” —
