Why does spoken content stop at the end of a page in iBooks on iPad after a software upgrade?

When spoken content is playing my iBook i stops at the end of the page and will not continue on my iPad. This usually happens after I do a software upgrade! My iPhone works perfectly fine!

Spoken Content freezes mid-speaking on iOS & iPadOS When using “Spoken Content” to read webpages or text in a document, it typically freezes. I typically have relied on this functionality. It’s the same on both iPad Pro and iPhone 14 Pro

What causes spoken content to stutter on iOS 18? I use spoken content in the accessibility app to read aloud kindle books all the time. After I updated to iOS 18 on my Iphone 13, the playback stutters and plays back intermittently where you can't understand the full sentence. I have tried this on three cars, three automakers, three carplays, two with bluetooth, one with apple certified connection cord. It doesn't matter. I turned off carplay and just used media on a car to see if it was a car play issue, and it still did it. Then if I switch to a different app like spotify, it does it there too. I have to kill the spotify app and relaunch and then it will work. However, spoken content does not work regardless of restarting phone, killing the app, turning off the spoken content menu bar and turning it back on. This is so disappointing as I listen to books all the time. If an audio book isn't available, I use the spoken content feature. I'm currently on 18.2 with no update available. I keep thinking it will be better with next update, but no go. I haven't tried another iphone in the house. That is my next test, but I am wondering if anyone has had any issues since 18. iOS 17 I had no problem. On a side note, since 18, I haven't had my phone autoreverse to some default voice like Samantha. Siri #4 is sticking. So that's positive. [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Spoken content not working on iPhone after reset Hello, so I am trying to get my spoken content so highlighting text and having my phone read it aloud and I reset my phone I’ve gone through and pretty much reset everything went through and adjusted every feature that I could possibly think of that’s related to it and that I’ve read online.But still when I highlight it and then I press speak. It just closes that on me and closes out of whatever app I’m using. [Re-Titled by Moderator]
