With iOS 17, Apple introduced an impressive new feature called Personal Voice. This feature allows people who are at risk of losing their ability to speak to create an authentic replica of their own voice. In this article, you'll learn more about Personal Voice and how to use it in iOS 17.
The ability to speak is something most people take for granted, but for some, this ability may be under threat. Apple developed Personal Voice to give people who are at risk of losing their voice a way to preserve their personality and identity. The technology behind Personal Voice is based on artificial intelligence and opens up new possibilities for communication.
Communication redefined: Experience personal voice in iOS 17
The Personal Voice feature is available in the first beta version of iOS 17 available and is available for developers to test. It is located under Accessibility -> Personal Voice in Settings. Creating a Personal Voice requires about an hour of time and a quiet environment without distracting background noise. Apple recommends holding the iPhone about two inches from your face while recording and speaking in a natural voice and at a consistent volume. If the ambient noise is too high, Apple recommends finding a quieter place to record. During recording, a series of sentences are read out to create and save the personal voice. The personal voice can then be used with the Live Speech feature to type and speak in various communication applications.
conclusion
Personal Voice is a groundbreaking feature in iOS 17 that helps people preserve their voice and communication skills. This innovative technology enables people who may lose their ability to speak to continue expressing their personality and identity. Look forward to the release of the first public beta of iOS 17 next month to try Personal Voice for yourself and discover the possibilities of custom voice creation.
