Get current speed of VoiceOver on iOS
Is there any way to get the current speed of the VoiceOver speech on an iOS app? Sometimes I use my own AVSpeechUtterance strings and I'd like to use the same rate that's is configured on VoiceOver settings. Thanks in advance.

Is the announcement specifically for VoiceOver users? Then it might be better to post announcement notification from UIAccessibility. VoiceOver will announce the notification, so users will hear with the same voice and speed from their VoiceOver setting.
UIAccessibility.post(notification:.announcement, argument:"Hello World!")
Read more information from the documentation.

This worked very well for me in conjunction with UIAccessibility.announcementDidFinishNotification in order to do something after VoiceOver finished speaking, without disrupting the user's set speaking rate setting.
