iOS 17 lets people add a Personal Voice
Apple provides an extensive range of accessibility features across its lineup of devices, and a new tool in iOS 17 will help those that need their voice to talk for them. Here’s how to set it up.
To set up Personal Voice in iOS 17, you must record approximately 15 minutes of your voice, although Apple warns that it could take up to an hour. Then, your iPhone will use this recorded audio to generate a personalized voice model.
The first step is recording you saying, “I’m creating a Personal Voice with my iPhone.” It then analyzes the recording for sound quality, then you continue saying more phrases out loud after hitting the Record button.
Once you have finished the initial setup process, your iPhone will start generating the Personal Voice while it’s connected to a power source and the screen is turned off. Furthermore, you will receive a notification alerting you when your Personal Voice is ready for use.
