This has all the indicators of being a simple volume problem. Have her remove any headphones, then do a two-finger swipe up on her screen, so VoiceOver will read the whole thing. While it reads, have her hit the volume up buttons until she hears speech.
Given that the speaker works, and that VoiceOver is clearly not muted or disabled, the only conclusion is that the main volume is down. Remember that iOS uses independent volumes - you can blast your internal speaker, but then have headphones turned way down, and both volumes are saved. To make it more confusing, the volume used during phone rings or alarms is different even from the other two, which is why she is hearing VoiceOver when an alarm goes off. > On Jan 28, 2015, at 2:47 PM, Davy Cuppens <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hi folks > I have a belgian friend that has the following problem: she nolonger has > speech output on her iphone speaker.
