SIRI READ BACK OF TEXT

Siri starts reading back my incoming and outgoing text but stops before it finishes. This started only after updating to iOS 17 and also on 17.0.1.

iPhone 14 Pro, iOS 17

Hey Leo1952september,


Check to make sure Siri has fully downloaded the Siri voice you are using in Settings. You can do this at Settings > Siri & Search > Siri Voice. The best way to refresh the Siri Voice you use is to temporarily select another voice and then switch back to your preferred voice. This will force a partially downloaded voice to resume.

There were some pretty big changes to Siri in iOS 17, so we recommend trying some basic troubleshooting and test in between.

  1. Restart your iPhone. This is the best way to resolve many minor temporary issues on your iPhone.
  2. The steps in this article will help you reset and retrain Siri: If Siri isn't working on your iPhone - Apple Support
  3. Finally, Apple released iOS 17.0.2 a few days ago. If you haven't yet, update your iPhone to see if it continues.


Kindest Regards.
