Hello,



I had an appointment with Genius Bar to fix my phone. Now I notice that voiceover has a different voice. I want to know how many voices are there, and how can I change to the voice I had before. My iPhone is 6S.

Is it perhaps under Settings, General, Accessibility, VoiceOver? I know I have seen this somewhere in my prowling through the Settings menu.

Hi,

Yes, in VoiceOver Settings is an option called Speech, and in there you can change your phone's default voice and also set up voices in other languages or dialects that you can switch to on the rotor.

Best,
Anna

Hi Rena,
They are the Vocaliser voices from Nuance and there are probably about 20-30 of them in various English dialects. Names include Samantha, Tom, Daniel and Karen. There are also a couple of the traditional Apple voices – Fred, Alex and Victoria.
Honestly, your best bet is to go to Settings/General/Accessibility/Voiceover/Speech, as Anna has already suggested, and have a play. You will not break anything by doing this and you will discover just which voices you have available!
