    Hi @adrianandlynne

    Hopefully @VikramK will pick this up and add the computerised voices for you. You should have Serena and Malcolm For English U.K. and they are usually listed at the very top of the available voices.

    Hi
    @adrianandlynne
    Firstly are any of the Sound Icons slashed through ???

    Tap 4Dot (.... Menu) -->

    When you checked for the Computer Voice Serena and Malcolm UK
    Did you scroll UP the list as well as DOWN....
    Sometimes there are Voices ABOVE the Selected Voice as well as below....
    Tap 4Dot (.... Menu) --> Setting --> Voices... Tap 'Choose a Voice
    Also click on the Button 'All Voices' (Screen bottom right)

    Stay Safe... ATB YFM

    Hello, just purchased 6250 navigation, and the voice control is not available, can I have those automated voices?

    Hi
    @Dzastins
    Welcome to the site....
    For Voice control you MUST use a TTS Computer Voice... NOT a recorded voice....
    For spoken Street names....
    Check... Tap 4Dot (.... Menu) --> Setting --> Voice....

    Hi @Dzastins
    Welcome to the community!
    Just in case you don't have a computer voice, we have activated - Serena and Malcolm on your account.
    They should be offered as downloads now!

    Regards, Vikram.
