    Trying to update to iOS 27, but when I go into Software update and click &quot;upgrade to iOS 27&quot; the release notes are for iOS 26.7. Anyone else seeing this?

    Made a few changes to #VocalWriter last night, including better screen reader announcements when adjusting note length/pitch and adding a proper undue system. Latest pre-release should be available here: Mac: https://github.com/masonasons/vocalwriter/releases/download/latest/VocalWriterStudio-macos-arm64.zip Windows: https://github.com/masonasons/vocalwriter/releases/download/latest/VocalWriterStudio-win64.zip I&#39;d also like to clean up the docs quite a bit, Claude is all over this stuff :)

    I&amp;#39;ve gotta say the open source TTS space is getting really interesting as of late, with models like Omni Voice and VoxCPM2 having recently been released. At this point, I see no reason to keep using something like Eleven Labs, the quality is pretty much there and you have far greater control. While I&amp;#39;m not sure how useful these would be for a screen reader, I&amp;#39;m starting to see some apps on iOS especially that incorporate AI TTS models for document reading.
