Hi Steve
Having listened to this I totally agree, Apple should mend this bug
retrospectively. Otherwise, those using the 4s will have their hands forced to
purchase a more up to date phone in order to use this function efficiently. I
don't think the suggestion which Martin has reiterated is good enough as
turning off voiceover to use the dictation and then turning voiceover back on
again afterwards is that clever for a totally blind user, particularly those
who aren't particularly confident with tech. Apple have a moral duty to fix
this but they have shown in their unwillingness to pay the tax they are due to,
that morals aren't that high on their list. I say this despite valuing my
iPhone 5s hugely as it enables me to do so many things that make life so much
easier.

Hi all,
If you are on one of the older iOS devices, that won’t get iOS 10, this is
pretty nasty.

Let’s hope Apple fix the bug retrospectively.
All the best
