    Is it possible to change the voice the app uses for navigation. If not something a user can select, at least use the default speech set in iOS accessibility VoiceOver settings.

      @Raj-2 This is a feature on our backlog! πŸ™‚ For now the only supported voice, is the default voice.

        @Raj-2 In iOS, you have a limited ability to choose a different voice. On your phone go to Settings > Accessibility > Spoken Content > Voices > select your language... voila.

          @Rob-Verhoeff Does that change the voice in MRA? I'm pretty sure it didn't in the beta.

              @Rob-Verhoeff Doesn't work, my device is setup as English UK, and the Spoken Content is set to Siri Voice 1, however the app still uses the voice of "Daniel" - the default accessibility voice.

              Have already quit the app and restarted iPhone, still no change.

                  @Raj-2 Siri is the only voice that doesn't work (Apple doesn't want it to). The others do! Give it a try πŸ˜‰

                    @Raj-2 I cannot hear the difference well between Voice1 and Daniel. Maybe that's because English is not my native language. However, I can easily hear the difference in Dutch between Xander, Claire, and Ellen (Belgian/Dutch). I think @Bart-DM has given the awnser with that.
