Announce Calls (Accessibility Spoken Content) App Store Listing in Simplified Chinese — 朗读来电 & Siri 来电播报 zh-Hans Copy
Your en-US listing markets Announce Calls — Apple's built-in accessibility setting under Settings → Accessibility → Spoken Content → Announce Calls — where Siri speaks incoming Phone and FaceTime caller names aloud when the user wears AirPods, compatible headphones, or is connected to CarPlay — but the China App Store product page still shows English title, subtitle, description, and caption lines.
Announce Calls speaks caller identification through headphones or CarPlay — not Speak Selection selected-text read-aloud (朗读所选内容), not Speak Screen full-page narration (整屏朗读), not Typing Feedback keyboard speech (键入反馈), not a generic Spoken Content hub paragraph, not Announce Notifications notification speech (朗读通知), not Call Screening reason-before-ringing flows, not Silence Unknown Callers mute settings, not Live Voicemail transcription, not CallKit VoIP incoming-call UI engineering, not the built-in Phone app hub alone, and not Live Speech type-to-speak.
Mentioning Announce Calls on your US page does not auto-fill a Simplified Chinese (zh-Hans) localization row.
AppLocale rewrites paste-ready zh-Hans listing fields that describe your existing caller-announcement and 朗读来电 story — not CallKit engineering, not custom incoming-call screen design, not screenshot design.
Listing copy only — we do not implement Announce Calls in your app, we do not guarantee rank, and we do not invent reviews or metrics.

Western indie iOS and iPadOS developers — US, UK, EU, Canada, Australia — who:
Already ship or market an app whose buyers use Announce Calls — communications, productivity, or accessibility apps that pair with Siri caller-name speech, or gallery frames that show Settings → Spoken Content → Announce Calls toggles
Market Announce Calls, Siri announces caller names, AirPods incoming-call announcements, CarPlay caller speech, or 朗读来电 / 来电播报 / 来电朗读 / 辅助功能 / 口述内容 / AirPods 朗读来电 on the en-US product page and in screenshot galleries
Finished call-aware or headphone-accessibility UX in the binary — not looking for CallKit CXProvider or custom incoming-call UI engineering help here
Enabled the China App Store but the zh-Hans row is empty, machine-translated, or still English on Announce Calls gallery frames
Need paste-ready Connect text — not an engineer for CallKit or telephony APIs, not a designer to re-export every headphone-caller-ID screenshot from scratch
Announce Calls engineering vs zh-Hans listing copy — two different jobs
US/EU indie teams conflate spoken caller-ID capability with storefront language. iOS Settings and App Store Connect actually separate them:
Announce Calls on the device — when enabled under Settings → Accessibility → Spoken Content → Announce Calls, Siri can speak incoming Phone and FaceTime caller names aloud through AirPods, compatible headphones, or CarPlay. System accessibility behavior — outside AppLocale scope.
In-app call and telephony UI — custom code that integrates CallKit, renders incoming-call screens, or surfaces call-management settings inside your app. Engineering inside the binary — not listing rewrite.
Announce Calls marketing on the product page — description paragraphs, subtitle positioning, keywords, promotional text, and screenshot overlays that tell buyers your app supports Announce Calls, Siri caller-name speech, or hands-free incoming-call awareness. Connect text fields — this page.
Pricing and Availability → China — makes the app downloadable on the China storefront. Separate from language rows.
App Store tab → Chinese (Simplified) localization — independent row for title, subtitle, keywords, description, promotional text, and screenshot caption lines. Empty or English here means China buyers see English fallback regardless of how strongly your US listing markets Announce Calls.
An app that ships call-aware flows in the binary and a localized China listing are both valuable — neither replaces the other. AppLocale covers how you describe Announce Calls and spoken caller-ID delivery on the store page, not how you implement CallKit or custom incoming-call UI.
What Apple Announce Calls is — and what your listing may claim
Apple ships Announce Calls under Settings → Accessibility → Spoken Content → Announce Calls. When enabled and the user wears AirPods, compatible headphones, or uses CarPlay, Siri can speak incoming Phone and FaceTime caller names aloud. Western indie listings often show one or more of these surfaces on the US product page. AppLocale covers paste-ready zh-Hans copy for whichever your screenshots and description already claim:
Headphone caller-ID speech (朗读来电) — Siri announces who is calling on Phone and FaceTime through AirPods or wired/Bluetooth headphones. Gallery frames may show "Announce Calls", "Hear who's calling in your ears", or headphone-connected caller-announcement badges.
CarPlay incoming-call announcements (CarPlay 朗读来电) — spoken caller identification while driving with CarPlay connected. Marketing art may highlight in-car caller speech without visual distraction.
Phone and FaceTime scope (电话与 FaceTime 来电) — Announce Calls covers system Phone and FaceTime incoming calls — not third-party VoIP call UI unless your English gallery explicitly shows that pairing story.
Spoken Content settings alignment (口述内容) — voice picker, speaking rate, and Announce Calls master toggle under the Spoken Content branch when your English gallery shows Settings-style captures. Include 口述内容 vocabulary only when your US listing already frames Spoken Content settings — not as a generic hub paragraph.
Your gallery may lead with an AirPods caller-announcement demo on one frame and a CarPlay incoming-call speech badge on the next. zh-Hans caption lines should name the correct surface per frame — an Announce Calls toggle sheet is not a CallKit answer screen, and a headphone caller-ID demo is not Call Screening reason cards unless that is what the screenshot shows.
Announce Calls listing copy vs Announce Notifications, Call Screening, and other speech guides
Several shop guides cover adjacent Apple Accessibility speech and telephony features. This page covers Announce Calls and spoken caller-ID marketing on listing metadata — not engineering, not unrelated category copy:
Announce Calls and spoken caller-ID (this page) — Siri speaks incoming Phone and FaceTime caller names through AirPods, headphones, or CarPlay, and 朗读来电 / 来电播报 / 来电朗读 / AirPods 朗读来电 on gallery frames and in description paragraphs.
Announce Notifications notification read-aloud (different) — Siri reads notification banners through headphones or CarPlay — 朗读通知. Covered on our Announce Notifications listing guide when spoken push delivery is your lead claim — not incoming-call caller-ID speech. Announce Notifications speaks notification content; Announce Calls speaks caller names for ringing calls.
Speak Selection selected-text read-aloud (different) — highlight text, Speak button overlay, context-menu Speak — 朗读所选内容. Covered on our Speak Selection listing guide when selected-text playback is your lead claim.
Speak Screen full-page read-aloud (different) — swipe-to-read everything visible on screen — 朗读屏幕, 整屏朗读. See Speak Screen listing guide when full-page narration is your lead claim.
Call Screening reason-before-ringing (different) — unknown-caller reason cards and screen-before-you-answer flows — 来电筛选. See Call Screening listing guide — pre-answer screening UX, not Siri headphone caller-ID speech.
Silence Unknown Callers (different) — system setting that mutes or sends unknown numbers to voicemail — 静音未知来电. See Silence Unknown Callers listing guide — mute behavior, not spoken caller identification.
Live Voicemail transcription (different) — real-time voicemail transcription while callers leave a message — 实时语音留言. See Live Voicemail listing guide — voicemail text, not ringing-call caller speech.
CallKit native call UI (different) — VoIP apps reporting calls to the system incoming-call interface — CXProvider marketing. See CallKit listing guide — native call screen engineering and marketing, not Announce Calls accessibility settings.
Phone app hub (different) — built-in dialer, recents, and voicemail tabs — 电话. See Phone app listing guide — system dialer hub, not Siri headphone caller announcements.
Live Speech & type-to-speak (different) — users type custom phrases to speak aloud in conversations — 实时语音, 键入朗读. See Live Speech listing guide — outbound typed speech, not inbound caller-ID read-aloud.
Voice Control & Vocal Shortcuts (different) — spoken UI commands and custom phrase triggers — 语音控制, 声音快捷指令. See Voice Control listing guide or Vocal Shortcuts listing guide — commands operate the interface; Announce Calls outputs audio for incoming caller identification.
VoiceOver, Live Caption & screen reader (different) — screen reader navigation, real-time subtitles for heard audio — 旁白, 实时字幕. See VoiceOver listing guide — different buyer intent from 朗读来电.
You can localize the title and still leave every Announce Calls screenshot overlay and headphone-caller-ID demo paragraph English-only. Buyers then see a Chinese name with English "Announce Calls" badges — a mismatch that reads like half-finished localization. See also China App Store still shows English when entire rows fall back.
Where English Announce Calls copy shows on the China product page
Western indie teams often market spoken caller-ID or Announce Calls compatibility on the US page but leave storefront call-speech marketing English-only. On the China storefront, English surfaces in places buyers actually read:
Screenshot overlay badges — "Announce Calls", "Siri tells you who's calling", "Hear caller names in your AirPods", "CarPlay announces incoming calls", "Hands-free caller ID" on gallery frames showing Settings toggles or headphone demos
Description paragraphs — English value props about eyes-free calling, driving safety, or accessibility via spoken caller identification that China readers skim past
Subtitle and keywords — English-only rows miss China Search intent for 朗读来电, 来电播报, or AirPods 朗读来电 when buyers filter for call-accessibility apps
Promotional text — 170-character field still pitching Announce Calls in English above the description
Mixed page — Chinese description pasted once but Announce Calls screenshot captions and subtitle still English — reads unfinished next to localized competitors
Formal machine translation — stiff 翻译腔 that conflates 朗读来电 (Announce Calls) with 来电筛选 (Call Screening), 静音未知来电 (Silence Unknown Callers), 朗读通知 (Announce Notifications), or 朗读所选内容 (Speak Selection) when your English source only claimed Siri headphone caller announcements
Better zh-Hans listing copy helps eyes-free and headphone-accessibility buyers understand your Announce Calls story before install. It does not replace CallKit implementation, custom incoming-call UI work, or Apple's review decisions — and it does not require you to re-shoot an entire headphone-caller-ID screenshot gallery to mention 朗读来电 in text.
What AppLocale delivers for Announce Calls apps on zh-Hans
This SKU is a listing rewrite scoped to Announce Calls and spoken caller-ID marketing — paste-ready fields you copy into App Store Connect:
Name (title) — zh-Hans app name within Connect character limits when your English title does not signal caller-announcement speech to China searchers
Subtitle — concise benefit line that can reference Announce Calls or spoken caller-ID delivery without stuffing raw English badge text
Keywords — zh-Hans search terms buyers use for 朗读来电, 来电播报, AirPods 朗读来电, and call-accessibility apps in your category
Description — long listing body with clear zh-Hans paragraphs on Announce Calls workflows you already claim — without English-only "Announce Calls" jargon
Promotional text — when you include the 170-character promo field in scope
Screenshot overlay / caption lines — short zh-Hans text on gallery images that show announcement toggles or headphone caller-ID demos ("朗读来电", "AirPods 朗读来电", "CarPlay 朗读来电")
English alignment — matching en-US field notes when both storefronts must stay consistent on caller-speech promises
We map deliverables to the fields you actually use. Send every English overlay line and description paragraph that mentions Announce Calls, Siri caller-name speech, AirPods announcements, or CarPlay incoming-call speech — we deliver counted strings that fit Connect limits. We rewrite what you already claim on the US page; we do not invent caller-announcement features your app does not describe.
Announce Calls-specific listing vocabulary — what translates differently
Spoken caller-ID marketing on App Store pages uses vocabulary general utility guides rarely cover. zh-Hans copy should reflect how Chinese buyers describe Announce Calls in iOS Settings — not a literal paste of US marketing:
Official Settings vocabulary
Apple's zh-Hans Settings UI uses 朗读来电 for Announce Calls under 辅助功能 → 口述内容 (Spoken Content). Related commerce phrasing includes 来电播报 (incoming-call announcement), 来电朗读 (call read-aloud), AirPods 朗读来电 (AirPods announce calls), CarPlay 朗读来电 (CarPlay announce calls), and 口述内容 when your gallery shows the Spoken Content settings branch — not as a standalone hub title. Listing copy should mirror that vocabulary — not generic telephony marketing or medical claims.
Announce Calls vs Call Screening and Silence Unknown Callers
Call Screening covers unknown-caller reason flows before you answer — 来电筛选. Silence Unknown Callers covers muting or sending unknown numbers to voicemail — 静音未知来电. Announce Calls covers Siri speaking caller names through headphones or CarPlay — 朗读来电. zh-Hans listing copy should not imply screening or mute behavior when your English source only shows headphone caller-announcement toggles or CarPlay speech demos.
Announce Calls vs Live Voicemail and CallKit
Live Voicemail covers real-time transcription while callers leave a message — 实时语音留言. CallKit covers VoIP apps reporting to the native incoming-call interface. Announce Calls covers spoken caller identification for ringing Phone and FaceTime calls — 朗读来电. If your English gallery shows only a CallKit answer screen or voicemail transcription line with no Announce Calls toggle, see the CallKit listing guide or Live Voicemail listing guide instead.
Announce Calls vs Announce Notifications and Speak Selection
Announce Notifications speaks notification content through Siri — 朗读通知. Speak Selection reads highlighted existing text — 朗读所选内容. Speak Screen reads everything visible on screen — 朗读屏幕. Announce Calls speaks incoming caller names for Phone and FaceTime — 朗读来电. If your English gallery shows a notification banner speech demo or context-menu Speak action, do not upgrade zh-Hans copy to Announce Calls claims unless that is what the frame shows.
Announce Calls vs Typing Feedback and Live Speech
Typing Feedback speaks keyboard input as you type — 键入反馈. Live Speech speaks user-typed phrases in conversations — 实时语音. Announce Calls speaks caller names for system incoming calls — 朗读来电. Different input sources and buyer stories.
Subtitle and keyword packing
The 30-character subtitle and 100-character keyword field need call-speech search terms Chinese buyers type — see Simplified Chinese keywords & subtitle for field mechanics. Terms like 朗读来电 and 来电播报 each signal different intent from 来电筛选 or 朗读通知 keywords.
Caption lines vs burned-in badges
Marketing screenshot overlays you control — "Announce Calls" headlines on gallery frames showing headphone caller-ID demos — are separate caption fields or burned-in PNG text. See Screenshot captions in Simplified Chinese for caption-field mechanics when overlays are editable in Connect.
Why English-only Announce Calls copy hurts China storefront conversion
Headphone-accessibility and eyes-free calling purchasers browsing the China App Store evaluate caller-speech claims in the first scroll. Common failure modes when only en-US is filled:
Trust gap — Chinese word-of-mouth recommends a "hear who's calling in your AirPods" app; buyer taps through and sees English "Announce Calls" with no zh-Hans context
Localized listing, English badges — description promises Chinese 朗读来电 support; screenshot overlays still "Announce Calls" at the worst moment
Search intent miss — buyers search 朗读来电 or 来电播报; English-only keywords miss intent even when your app ships call-aware flows in the binary
Call Screening vocabulary bleed — machine-translated 来电筛选 appearing in zh-Hans copy when English source only claimed Siri headphone caller announcements, confusing buyers who wanted spoken caller ID not reason-before-ringing cards
Announce Notifications vocabulary bleed — 朗读通知 appearing when English source showed AirPods caller-ID speech, not notification banner read-aloud
Competitor contrast — rivals with native zh-Hans Announce Calls and 朗读来电 copy look more serious about China buyers who care about 无障碍 and hands-free incoming-call awareness
Clearer zh-Hans Announce Calls marketing reduces confusion on the product page. It does not replace CallKit implementation or in-app telephony engineering — and it is not a substitute for driving-safety or medical positioning your app does not claim.
Machine translation is fine for internal drafts. Finished Announce Calls strings need idiomatic zh-Hans that states what caller-speech scope you claim — while keeping accurate separation from Call Screening, Announce Notifications, Speak Selection, and CallKit marketing. AppLocale rewrites by hand; we do not deliver raw Google Translate or LLM output as finished copy.
What good zh-Hans Announce Calls listing copy looks like
Spoken caller-ID copy appears on screenshot galleries and in description skims. Strong Chinese strings lead with the benefit and state scope plainly:
Overlay: "AirPods 朗读来电,免看屏幕即知来电人" — headphone caller-announcement frame with clear benefit line
Description paragraph: plain zh-Hans list of Announce Calls workflows you ship — Siri caller-name speech through headphones, CarPlay speech, Phone and FaceTime scope — matching what you actually describe on the US page
Subtitle: "朗读来电" or "AirPods 来电播报" within the ~30-character cap
Keywords: include 朗读来电 / 来电播报 / AirPods 朗读来电 only when accurate — do not keyword-stuff 来电筛选 or 朗读通知 if you only market Announce Calls
Honest scope — do not claim CallKit VoIP incoming-call UI or Call Screening reason cards in Chinese if your app only ships caller-announcement accessibility demos
zh-Hans and en-US strings can differ in length and structure when the underlying Announce Calls story is the same — avoid mirroring English comma-heavy promo lines character-for-character.
