There may come a time when you're unable to use your voice to communicate with those around you. Your iPhone, iPad, and Mac have an accessibility feature called Personal Voice that lets you synthesize a voice that sounds similar to you, giving you the ability to communicate with others. Mikah Sargent walks you through the process of setting up a Personal Voice and using Live Speech to access it. You can use your Personal Voice for FaceTime calls, phone calls, in specific apps, and more!
