iOS 6: Bug List

This is an iOS 6 bug: sometimes when flicking left and right, the focus erroneously moves to the status bar items at the very top of the screen. Also, it affects Fleksy in that if you type something, move to the Fleksy menu and select Message, you'll be moved to the Compose message window. However, as VoiceOver is reading the empty "To" field, the focus strangely moves to the status bar items and you should return the focus to the composition fields manually. This is something Fleksy developers are fully aware of though it's the fault of iOS 6.

Hi. I'm in Ireland and iOS has chosen British English (Daniel) as my default voice. However I prefer the Australian voice (Karen) so switch to it. But whenever I turn VoiceOver off, when I turn it back on again it reverts to the default British voice. This also happens when I turn the device on. Also I've noticed that when composing a new message, touch typing is very sluggish. This is just with a new message, there's no problem in existing message threads.

- When using zoom and voiceover together on iPad, touch typing stops working, even when you exit zoom. You have to triple click home to turn voiceover off and then on again to get it working again. On iPhone touch typing starts working again once you exit zoom, so it seems to be just an iPad issue to me. - Zoom doesn't seem to zoom in as far in iOS6, ie. it has a lower maximum magnification level. Has anyone else noticed this? - When typing with zoom turned on, zoom's focus does not follow the cursor. Focus just sits in the top corner of the screen so you can't see what you're typing. This was also the case in iOS5 on the 3rd generation iPad, but on my old first generation iPad zoom focus did follow the cursor, at least in built in apps such as Notes and Mail.

This report is associated with playback using Bluetooth Headsets. The audio skips at various points of playback. Could not dupilicate the problem using earbuds (wiried). This was not an issue in IOS 5. There have been Bluetooth posts in the various forums regarding audio controls for use in automobiles. I don't klnow if this is a Bluetooth bandwith issue, ram, or just a previous bug they did not propragte into the new IOS, or just waiting for reports to build up and then fix it. Rebooting, reset of the hardward will probably not fix the issue, since I reset on another issue with Apple Tech support, but not sure this issue was present at that time. Replys, Advice welcome...

Hello all! I have noticed on my IPhone 4S that I cannot label pictures or videos in my camera roll. Once I label the picture or video and press done or save the label does not show up when I go back to the camera roll. Also, all of my labels have disappeared prior to the Ios6 upgrade. Anyone else experiencing this?

Hi. I have no such problem with the table index. Alex, you don't need to tap and hold in table index, just put focus on table index and swipe up or down to go through alphabet. Much the same as using headings but without the hassle of finding it in the roter

Hey guys, Don't want to state the obvious but wanted to bring it up here as it helped me a gray deal. This is especially important if you participated in iOS betas prior to the official release of any version of iOS. If you have crashes or some strange behavior that you have not observed before, consider going to your settings->general->reset option. Then choose "reset all settings" and let iOS do its job. Yes, this does mean you will have to redo many of your VO and app settings but it's a remedy nevertheless. Hope this helps to some. Best, Vic

The unlabeled buttons are Add contact and delete. O did a reboot and it fixes the problem.

hello! all i am not to sure who is having this problem. I have an i phone 4 and I noticed a few bugs with the new lovely i o s 6. When i go to open a message that has pictures attached to it and i tried to open the picture sometimes the picture opens and other times it does not. When the picture opens and it shows the action button but however when i go to click on it the action button does not click. Sometimes when i open the message the whole app freezes and i have to end it with the app manager. I just thought i would post this in case anyone else was having the same problem. so happy bug fixing apple!

Hello, I updated to iOS 6 on the day of its public release. An immediate concern wormed its way into my experience with this update. When I compose messages in standard typing mode, my on-screen keyboard becomes extremely lethargic with VO. VO's responsiveness to my key presses seems even slower when I initiate the composition of a text message, as opposed to merely replying to such a message. Has anyone had this problem? I'd appreciate any comments. Thanks. :)

I just noticed this yesterday on my iPod touch Fourth generation. When I play music, every other song starts to cut in and out for the first, maybe, thirty seconds to a minute or so, then it's fine. This does not happen on my iPhone 4.It didn't happen when I had IOS 5 on either device.Has anyone else noticed this problem?

(for the record, I'm using ios6 on a 4S.) There are quite a few things to like about the new Facebook app. I've run into one difficulty, and wonder if others know a trick I haven't yet learned. When reading through status reports, I arrive at the bottom of those displayed. I have been unable to scroll to see more status messages while Voice Over is on. I've found a work-around. I turn VO off, use a one-finger swipe from bottom to top, then turn VO back on, and additional messages are displayed. Is there a way to do this without deactivating VO? If not, "inaccessible Facebook controls" smells like a bug to me.

OK, I have a braille display, well its the school's not mine, but anywans its an APH Refreshabraille 18, and I've found that, in the messages app, sometimes, happens mostly when I open it from the notifications center, the focus is amazingly awkards and the keyboard at first thinks the text field is a password field and them doesn't read updated text. Anyways, with the focus issue, when I press space with 4-5-6 to go to the end to find the send message button, it plays the VO Movement sound, but says nothing. There are other focus issues, but none that I've been able to reproduce a lot.

Hi, I have read the comments with interest but am wondering if these bugs are random. It seems bugs some people experience arn't a problem for someone else e.g. I can use table index in my contact list with no problems but I find the buttons on the qwerty keyboard work as if in sighted mode but other people don't seem to have this problem. If this is the case will it not make it a lot harder to rectify?

Does anyone no if the bug is fixed where the voiceover sounds whent very soft when connecting to speakers using the headphone jack?

Hello friends, I made a list of all bugs I could find and accessibility, I take the liberty of posting it here. Excuse me if something is wrong, but I tried to make the greatest number of tests possible to see that these are really serious bugs. These bugs happen on an iPhone 4. VoiceOver Bugs If you select an option on the rotor and then restart the iPhone, the rotor positions itself automatically in another option (there was in the iOS 5); VO incorrectly pronounced the word "Wi-Fi" in the settings (with the voice in Portuguese of Brazil); YOU can't read how many stars a particular app is in the App Store; YOU cannot read what are the apps related to what is being displayed (in the app store); There are 2 buttons that are not labeled in settings/music; The App Store for the iPad has some serious accessibility issues; When we are writing a new mail in Mail but need to cancel the same, jesto put 4 fingers on the top of the screen to go to the first item of the screen does not work. The VO simply makes a distinctive sound, but does not say anything and won't for the button "Cancel"; The jesto of 4 fingers on the bottom of the screen also no longer works when we are writing a new email in Mail.

Hello, I noticed another bug. I do not know what is the cause of it, or if the bug happens with the VO disabled. When trying to enter very quickly an address of a particular website in Safari with my Apple wireless keyboard , are typed letters too, without I write them. I do not know if I explain properly, for this will give them an example: www.crackle.com If I try to quickly write the URL of this Website in the address bar of Safari with my Apple wireless keyboard, the address is more or less like this: www.wwwwwww.crackle.com or if I try to put only crackle.com is written more or less like this: ccrackkkkkkkkle.com Sorry if I haven't managed to explain properly. I own an iPhone 4 and the latest model launched the Apple wireless keyboard;

So I found the following bugs on the latest firmware.ILS – six. taking in to acount how fast the phone is, when coming out of apps, some times the hole device lags then performs all actions together. VO language settings revert back to UK English when voice-over is switched off all devices switched off VOO.focus, goes back to the top of the screen Feel Australian voice, completely messed up pitch Most importantly of all, the keyboard some of the numbers and letters don't read sometimes and all they give feedback is clicks Apart from the little box fantastic iOS

Hi people, Firstly of all, I use an iPhone 4 16 gb and a new iOS6 update. Here are bugs that I have founded: If you put some other language, and turn voice over on or off US english will speak no matter what. Of course, that can be resolved we a rotor, for me is iritating. In facebook app, you can find buttons for example like or remove, but if you want to remove something from your wall, you put remove and anything happend. If you go in to your list of friends and try to search for somebody in particular, voiceover is reading anything. Also I had problem with rebooteing my Device. I hold the home and power key, and anything happend, or at least when something happend, iPhone reboote, but speech is lost. Has anybody experienced this also? And when speech is lost, All vo settings are lost also. The triple click home is not working, and All I can do is put an iPhone to a computer, and turn voiceover we a itunes. When I am using an Apple bluetooth keyboard, and when phone is in touch tiping mode, Voiceover is not reading. The keyboard works only when I put the tiping to standard. I have noticed also that the baterry is going much much more faster. Sometimes when I read some e-mails voiceover is magicly turned off and turned on... I'll write to apple also about all. Regards, Olga

On first tab with new releases, voice over reads links that aren't on page. Secondly, when you type multiple punctuation like 4 periods it used to read that way no problem. When you type three periods it reads as ellipsis now. So annoying when reading a page that has like twenty ellipsis

I have found that when I update an app, sometimes it takes several times for the update to process. The app will stay on my app update list for several days before it goes through.

I have problems when I have searched for something that returns many apps. For example, I searched for Knitting. The store returned over 100 apps. When I flick down through the different apps, when I get somewhere past the 50th, the flick will make VO crash and sometimes will turn it off. I reported this earlier this week to Apple.
