I may have found your issue. Check VoiceOver Verbosity. Say cap, and delete text have separate settings in there both of which can use change pitch. HTH,

But I'm wondering why they introduced that and it didn't used to work that way years ago. Yeah I'll try and spell it out more, but my experience lately is that even that doesn't work. But I'll try again. Try try again until you lose all patients altogether. Most people who see me work on my phone say they would never have the patience to do to get to the bottom of things like I do. I am sure that all of us differ in the things we are willing to tolerate and how quickly we lose patience. Another issue that has not yet been resolved is how to get rid of the pitch when I first touch a character. Itpronounces them where it sounds like it's a capital letter but when I activate that letter with the double tap, I'm not using slide to type, it then sounds normal and doesn't pronounce it with that high-pitched capitalization type sound. Trying to figure out how to set the toneall globally. All the keyboard sounds. i use the voice over feedback religiously, andit always is a bit disconcerting and throws me off when that high pitch sound reads that letter is if it's a capital. Got to get rid of that. Sent from my iPhone On May 2, 2020, at 11:32 AM, Richard Turner <[email protected]> wrote: It offers the option of using the Email because you can text people using email.

But that's not what the weather report said. Just kidding. Many updates ago I complain that Siri seem to be getting stupider and stupider. For instance if I have a contact in contacts and I have it noted that their iPhone is an iPhone, when I ask Siri to text message that person it asks me whether I want to text message them using the phone number or an email. Those were questions I was never asked in previous updates and I'm talking quite some time ago at this point. Why would I want to email them rather than use a phone number? Is there some good reason for that? It makes me wanna remove all the emails from some of my most frequently texted contacts. And here's another odd thing that the new iOS on my new SE is doing. When I asked Siri how cold it is outside she keeps asking me where I am located. This is with location tracking on. This is even with my current city chosen in the Weather app. I went into Maps to see if there was something odd switched off there and didn't notice anything that might help with this. Does anyone have any clue what this might be about? Why Siri cannot locate where I am located? Nearby explorer sure can.
