Hi,
I still consider it to be a bug, since if the information is on the screen, it
should darned well read it. If you didn't want it, you could turn off preview.
All the best
Steve

Thanks a lot David, this is very helpful. And here’s me thinking all this time
that it was a bug in the newer iOS!

This is not a bug but a new Voiceover feature.
Now in order to read the Preview screen in Mail with Voiceover you need to do a
single 3 finger tap.
I must admit I prefer the old default behaviour and I am not sure why the
change was made without the option to revert to the old behaviour.

Hi Mo, I started noticing this issue with iOS 10 or one of its
subsequent releases. Before that VO had no problems reading message
previews whether message threading was on or off. If this issue turns
out to be caused by a VO configuration rather than a bug I too would
be grateful to know about it. I use iPhone 6 and 6s.

Subject: [access-uk] help please: Email preview in iOS not working
with voiceover
Hello Everyone.
It recently occurred to me that I should utilize the message preview
feature built in to iOS to read my emails as that would make the job a
lot quicker. I turned on message threading in mail settings, and set
the number of preview lines to 5. Now when I go in to mail, if the
message is an individual message and not part of a thread voiceover
doesn't read the preview though it's definitely on screen, confirmed
by someone sighted. However if I expand a thread, then it reads all
previews out fine. Does anyone have any idea what settings I need to
adjust to get voiceover to acknowledge the fact that I've turned on message
previews?
Any help greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Mo.
