Hi Mary, Try the following suggestions from a query of the same nature with iOS14. From: Chris Szostak Hi All!
I know a lot of us have had the really really annoying issue with VO 14.3-14.4 reading all and often way more punctuation than wanted. If you have had this problem, I found a solution on the VO bugs reporting list. at least two people there tried it with success and I have had the same results! 1. In settings go to Accessibility/VoiceOver/Activities. 2. Do a 1-finger swipe down on programs until you hear delete and delete this. If like me after doing the above two steps, you end up getting VO reading no punctuation at this point unless you read by character , there is a really simple solution. I had this problem and the following resolved it. 1. In settings go to Accessibility/VoiceOver/rotor. 2. Make sure punctuation is selected. This should resolve the problem, as long as your default is set to some. If it is not set to some, do the following: 1. In settings go to Accessibility/VoiceOver/Verbosity/Punctuation/Active Punctuation Group. 2. Make sure it is set to some or change the selection if that is not selected. Chris From: Dave Clement Hi, This sounds like the Voiceover "activity" bug. Try: 1. Go to Settings/Accessibility/Voiceover/Activities 2. Double tap on the "Programming" activity 3. Double tap on the "verbosity" setting 4. Set "punctuation" to none I am assuming you are running IOS 14.x. This should fix your problem. This is a known bug but it would help if you report it to Apple. The more folk who do, the higher the priority to fix it will rise. Dave Clement From: Lielle Ben Simon Hi, regarding the reading punctuation marks, on Voice Over go to the "activity" and "set program" and delete this. I have made this changed this, and it solved. Liel From: Simon A Fogarty Have you changed your voice on the device? If so try changing it back to the default voice and see what happens. Simon Stay safe and take care. Mike.

I’ve been using Alex forever. It works fine on my iPhone XR. So there has to be something going on. I just set my punctuation to none, and the stupid voiceover keeps giving me all sorts of commas and all kinds of crap. Changing voices is not the answer, since it works great on this phone. So, what the heck am I doing wrong? Sent from my iPhone On Jun 10, 2022, at 7:56 PM, Lielle Ben Simonליאל בן סימון <[email protected]> wrote: Hi Mary, try to use an other voice.

Five. And it is reading all sorts of unwanted punctuation, like,,.,: Etc. I have had my punctuation set to some which has worked great for as long as I can remember. I just went in and switch my punctuation to nun on this phone, and it is still reading all this garbage, colons and colons and commas etc. What am I doing wrong? This is unacceptable.
