iOS and iPadOS

Hello all:
I read on Mac Roomers, that from Ios16, siri can anounce notifications just on my Iphone and no need to have airbods or something,
so i enable this, and choose apps that siri will anounce notifications from, but nothing happened.
do i still need ot do extra thing? and is it working at your side?

I did this back in the earlier builds of iOS 16, and ended up getting frustrated with how it was implemented. From what my old brain can remember, you just enable it and choose which notifications to allow. AirPods need not apply.

For the record, this is managed under Settings > Accessibility > Siri.

HTH.

after i got an applevis email, it is working, with Native Ios apps, but what about 3rd party apps?

Pretty much all of my downloaded apps are in the list as possible choices. Including Be My Eyes.

I think that i found the solution.
Screen should be locked in order for siri to announce notification, this is what happened here.
all apps are working now, but you should lock your PHone.
