I'm not sure how a phone number should be read by VoiceOver. Is there a particular format or API that I can use to read phone numbers in my app?

At the moment I'm just assigning the phone number as a String to a UILabel and VoiceOver reads the accessibilityLabel.

We have logic in VoiceOver to detect most phone number formats, and then speak the string appropriately. Are you seeing unexpected speech output? Can you post an example of what the accessibilityLabel of your element would be?
