Feature

Changes

Bugs
* use iPhone as a phone, randomly toggles between aerpiece and speaker. (old)
* Safari: when tab browsing, switching to different tabs, VoiceOver will display old tab, not new, must toggle VoiceOver. (old)
* Safari: loading pages, using bluetooth keyboard to go to next element, will report not found; must return to top and move to next element. (old)
* Any app/screen, when is loaded/refresh, VO focus is always in top left; should be position in content area (preferably in last spot, where one had VO focus). (old)
* Safari: multiple tabs, check tab count, clear out a few tabs, tab count will still report tab count as if it was never cleared out; must clear out Safari from app switcher for it to be updated properly. (new)
* Mail and safari: when HTML content has loaded, says "web site loaded"; should not be this verbose with hints off and sounds on. Loaded sound is more than sufficient. (old)
* Push alert auto-reads time, not message content. (old))
* US TTS set to 100% will partially cut off X and H, partial words, but still understandable and can tell what letters they are. (partial)
* UK or Australian VoiceOver at 70-100% has speech cut off with a variety of characters,unusable. (old)
bluetooth keyboard/virtual,
A. keyboard getting stuck
B. reviewing by lines/words/characters. truncates lines, reads entire paragraph then individual lines, and switching to word doesn't pick up but instead starts at top of paragraph. Same occurs for when navigating by lines and switching to words, focus is forced to top.
C. at times, can't toggle quick nab. may have to restart VoiceOver or iPhone
D. no iOS word wrapping, but it exist for iBooks.
