iOS 17.2: How to Translate Speech With iPhone's Action Button

4. The autoplay of the translation to sound never works the first time. After it "plays" it automatically, you then have to press repeat play manually, and only then you can hear it.

I was a bit confused by this when I first started playing with it too. However, it’s linked to whether you’re in silent mode or not: with silent mode turned off it’ll speak the translation the first time, without you needing to hit the play button.

I actually tried that and it didn't seem to make any difference, but I'll try again. Thanks for the reply.
