Forget Siri: Your iPhone Can Now Clone Your Voice for Digital Tasks

While we’re a long way off from being able to create sentient duplicates of ourselves to go to work while we nap, a somewhat obscure feature on your Apple iPhone is bringing us a little closer. There’s a feature in iOS 17 that allows users to create and utilize a “clone” of their voice for a variety of tasks.

According to Digital Trends, the feature, dubbed Personal Voice, essentially makes a photocopy of your voice that’s then stored on the device. Utilizing text-to-speech, you can type messages and then have the phone recite them aloud as though you were actually speaking.

Unsettling? Kind of. But it’s more than a novelty. Text-to-speech is extremely useful for those suffering from worsening speech impairment or speech loss due to illness or injury. One could, for example, call someone to talk rather than exchange text messages. While they speak, you could type a response and then have it converted to your voice.

10 Apple Watch Features That Will Help You Stay In Shape

Wearables haven't quite taken off the way we might have hoped but one device has managed to gain a foothold... or, perhaps more accurately, a handhold. But the Apple Watch has managed to succeed where other wearables, even other smart watches, haven't. Part of its success is its existing and familiar infrastructure, as well as a wide range of useful apps.

In addition to passing on your messages, phone calls and other alerts from your iPhone or iPad, the Apple Watch serves as a highly functional fitness device. By wearing the watch during active periods, it can gather information about your activities and habits, then turn that input into useful information.

You can also take advantage of various sensors, activities, and alerts to set, manage, and achieve your fitness goals. Even if you're not on a fitness journey of any kind, your Apple Watch can still help you keep the gears of your body greased and moving smoothly with these cool features.
