Hi,
You should only need to interact when there is a table, a scroll area or some

When in the VO Utility in the Activities category, select the Activity from the

Yes, with Nuance voices. If you avoid those, then it works—kinda. Sometimes,

Well, for the time being I just put all the voices back to Alex and things seem
to be smoother.
I am just now playing with activities, so am not even sure I'll stick with the
ones I now have set up.

Hi,
Well, I am using Alex for the default voice, but I do have some of the others
for content, status, and so on. So, maybe I'll just go back to using one voice
for everything and see how that flies.

I have emailed Apple Accessibility about this in the past. I have noticed that
only some Nuance voices are affected, Serena being one, Moira not much at all

I have also noticed this as I have a lot of different voices for different
apps. What I have noticed when everything is working there is only a slight
delay when switching from say mail to safari, but for some reason every now and

The problem seems to be when using Nuance voices. Even if none of your
activities change voices, just the act of using a Nuance voice appears to cause
slowness. Try switching to Alex and see if that helps, though I realize that is
not a solution. Please remember to email accessibil...@apple.com
Yes I have experienced slowness when using different voices with different
apps. especially when switching to another app.

Hi Anne,
Thanks for trying. I have mine set to "Play Tone" as well. I'll keep

Hello Tim,
I'm not sure about this but I certainly don't get these announcements. Have a

Activities are unfortunately named, as they do not do what they sound like. An
activity is a way of associating certain settings with certain applications.
For instance, you might have an activity called "edit", in which vo is set to
speak text attribute changes, use phonetics, and echo every ch

Not sure I get the question.
You can set verbosity options for the mail app specifically. Is this what you
are asking?

Hi,
Yes you can do that in activities. I don't see why it isn't a good idea if
that's what you want to do. To turn on Quick nav in your activity, check
additional settings to include and then the option to enable quick nav for your
activity will be available.
