Spoken notifications can come in handy to taxi drivers while on their car to allow them to keep their hands on the wheel at all times. No need either to actually get distracted from your driving to look at the screen and read the reservation notifications you just received. All you need to do is listen. Here is how to set it up.
Enable the VoiceOver Accessibility setting
The iOS setting that you need to enable is actually an accessibility feature called VoiceOver. This feature can be used to read all aspects of the screen using Siri’s voice, including notifications that pop up on the screen. The following steps will also allow you to easily turn on and off the VoiceOver setting, as it may not be a feature that you want enabled all of the time.
Since the latest development you will also be read the location of the reserving user and the intended destination, if provided.
