In ios17 when I try to use a siri voice with voiceover vo will say the voice is selected however it won't change to that voice. I've tried a restart of the phone, redownload and still same issue. I haven't seen this bug but was just curious if anyone else having this issue?
This is an IPhone SE3.
Thanks

iOS 17 VoiceOver bugs
I'm having that same issue not only with my iPhone but with my Apple Watch as well. Also, it seems to be that way with all the voices on my devices. Then when I go to the rotor and try to adjust speaking rate and volume the adjustments don't take affect at all. Is anybody having those problems? Thanks👨🦯
No, but similar
I had an issue after upgrading to 17.0 that suddenly all my SIRI voices disappeared and VoiceOver reverted back to all compact voices.
I use Norwegian SIRI 1 as my default voice and I have SIRI UK 1 and SIRI U.S. 4 in my rotor.
I couldn't reactivate SIRI voices and in fact the SIRI option was not there when I went to settings and speech for both Norwegian and UK / U.S. English.
I restarted my iPhone but still no go.
After a while SIRI was available again under speech and I had to redownload all voices again.
I also then noticed that two additional UK SIRI voices were available.
After redownloading all voices and set it up as described above all works well.
