Tap to speak time gone? iOS 13/watchOS 6

The option has moved. Go to your watch settings and then Clock, turn tap to speak time ON, it will work in all clock faces. Hold 2 fingers on the clock face. For Mickey to speak it needs to download the voice sound files.

make sure it is on wifi, and put it in the charger. After at least 15 minutes ( depending on your internet speed, it may be much longer), the sound files will download.

After that it will work.

it was a bug. 6.0.1 fixed the issue.

A work around that worked for me before the update was to toggle on voice over make one or two voice overs then revisable it. then the mice started to squeak again.

Watch ios 6.0.1 is out and it says mickey and minnie fix is in there. Downloading now

Apple moved it. Go to your Watch Settings scroll to Clock and turn it on.

Have you installed iOS 6 on your watch? From your watch Look under settings>Clock.

the setting under is now called “always speak”

it now works for me.

Mickey is not speaking the time for me either. two fingers to hold works but not on the Mickey watch-face. Also yes 'Tap to speak time' doesnt show on my phone in the Sounds & Haptics menu anymore. Weird change!

I first installed WatchOS 6.0.1 and it already worked after that. Then I installed iOS 13.1.2.

I did get a message from a cousin that has a Watch v3, and WatchOS 6.0.1 did NOT solve the problem. Maybe removing the watchface from the watch and then putting it back will help.

My Mickey and Minnie still aren't working. The other watch faces speak the time with the two finger hold...

I read somewhere that it needs to be on wifi and on the charger and needs 15 minutes to download the voices audio file. Maybe this is why it takes a while ?

Maybe just be patient.

Tap to speak time is not available anymore on watch app after upgrading to watchOS 6. Is this a bug?

Took a few minutes after the update/reboot but THERE BACK!

i even restored my watch and set up as a new watch hoping it will solve the problem. Kept both iphone and watch on charger and connected to my WiFi (of decent speed) for several hours and still ongoing (so beyond the 15min period many have mentioned).../ so far no sound when taping mickey.

Seeing that many had this issue when updated to ios13/watchos6 I believe it’s a bug and hope Apple finds a solution it as early as possible ...

So there is an update to IOS 6 that specifically addresses the fact that Mickey/Minnie doesn't speak. Well, they still don't. I have an appt with the store - what can they do that I haven't? Nothing - replace the watch.
