Hello all,
I just purchased a iPhone 10S yesterday. I am having a big issue with Voiceover. After doing a restore from an iCloud backup I noticed a lot of my voices are not working. Alex is showing up as being downloaded yet I cannot use it. When I chose to speack a sample of Alex it says starting download and it never downloads. So I thought I would try out Tom. When I went to Tom it also shows up as having downloaded it. Yet when I select him and try to speak a sample Samantha starts speaking instead. These are voices I had downloaded on the phone I was using previously. Is anyone else seeing this and what might I try to do to fix the issue?

It might help if you try to
It might help if you try to delete the voice and then try to redownload (even though the voice is missing apparently)
Reboot your iPhone
I had the same problem when I restored mine this Summer, after some wasted time I just rebooted it and the voices worked fine
Got it fixed
Hello,
I ended up having to delete Tom, even though the voice was not actually on my system. Once I did I was able to re-download him. The odd thing is that once I re-downloaded Tom I got the download button for Alex and was able to re-download the voice.

How do I delete Voiceover voices?
I'm having this same problem on an iPad after updating to ios 12. I already tried rebooting but it didn't help. How can I delete downloaded voices in order to try that solution?
