voiceover only reading second number in series or column of numbers

iOS and iPadOS

I have noticed:
That in iOS 13 and above, voiceover will only read the second number in a series or column of numbers
for example, if I am looking at my banking app, and it says $350, it will only say the number five

this can create quite a bit of havoc when it comes to checking on the prices of items, or bank balances, etc.
I have also reported this bug to apple, and I see it has not yet been fixed in 13.2.
it mostly happens in third-party apps, but I have noticed it in the notes app as well.
I am wondering if anyone else is experiencing this bug as well.
Thank you

I’m assuming you’ve tried a system reboot. Have you tried turning VO off/on?
I’m not experiencing this, but once had a similar issue. Turned out that backup became corrupt. Had to restore as new. Hopefully Apple will have an answer, but a restore as new is what they might tell you. Unfortunately!! Files sometimes become corrupted.

I think you may be right. I have reported this bug to apple, and I think restoring may be my last and only option. I must admit, I am loathe to do this. It is such a process, that I wish apple would have fixed this bug.
