Missing Google Assistant Voices - google-assistant-sdk

I was going to check out the new Google Assistant voices, but I am only to see the default female voice as an option.
My language is set to English (U.S.), I'm located in the U.S., and my system is above android 6.0 (7.0 on Droid Turbo 2), so what am I missing?

They were available this past weekend but they're missing now. Others on Reddit have mentioned the same thing. Must be an update. Hopefully just a bug issue being fixed ASAP.

Documentation download from within XCode

I am watching Objective-C tutorials, and they are all old for obvious reasons.
During their times, it was possible to download documentation in XCode for offline reference--in the way discussed in this question:
XCode Documentation - Offline Reading
It used to be done via Preferences -> Downloads tab -> Documentation. I.e., you used to have both Documentation and Simulators in the Downloads tab.
In the recent version of XCode there is no Downloads tab. There is only Components tab, and it only has Simulators, no Documentation.
I tried searching for the answer, but surprisingly no luck for such seemingly simple question.
How do I download the full set of available docs for offline use? Thanks.
The documentation is available out of the box nowadays and can be accessed from Window - Developer Documentation (⇧⌘0) Xcode menu:
I don't know, however, if you can opt-out and not have it downloaded.

iOS Deprecated Audio Format - AMR (Adaptive-Multi-Rate)

So this is something I've been trying to get my head around when I was trying to load one of my older apps.
There's a lot of threads where people are asking for the supported audio formats in iOS. And in most of them someone comments that support for AMR (Adaptive-Multi-Rate) was dropped in iOS 4.3. How do they know this?
Supported Audio file formats in iPhone
But I cannot find ANY api changes or anything about this in Apples official documentations.
i.e the diffs between 4.2 and 4.3:
https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/releasenotes/General/iOS43APIDiffs/
How can I get som actual documents saying that this actually happened?
Any help here would be much appreciated!
The closest I ever found to a document or official statement were two responses (login required) by an Apple Employee on the old Apple Developer Forums, both saying:
As of 4.3 iOS does not support encoding or decoding AMR.
If you want AMR you'll have to put in your own decoder.

Launching an 'App for Office' from the iOS Office app

I have developed an 'App for Office' (for Word) that runs as a task-pane app. When I open a Word Document, I can add my app and let it run on the task-pane.
How can I run my app when I am on my iPhone/iPad and using the iOS version of Microsoft Word? I wasn't able to find where I can add my app into the document.
I am aware this is more of a support question for Microsoft, but Stackoverflow seems to be the best place for now (I couldn't find any relevant StackExchange site).
Store add-ins are definitely supported on IOS in general, but not all add-ins. The developer has to tick a box and provide evidence that the add-in has been tested on IOS for it to be available to users, so the IOS versions of Office will have less add-ins available.
That said, you should be able to see the ones that are available via the Insert menu. Look for Store or My Add-ins under the Insert menu.

How to determine the exact iOS version using Google Analytics

While reading a tutorial on Google Analytics for iOS I wanted to know which version of iOS I was running.
I've googled for phrases like "ios version google analytics" but couldn't find anything useful.
Basically I want to know the number of users running my app on any iOS version, e.g. iOS 6, iOS 7 etc.
I've also checked the Google Analytics documentation, but couldn't find a proper method. The device info on Google Analytics dashboard just shows "iPhone" but does not mention the iOS version.
Is there a way to get the exact iOS version via Google Analytics?
I created you a custom report so you can see how the information is saved. Os Custom Report
I think what you are after is Operating system and Operating system version.
There is a method, go to
Audience > Technology > Browser & OS > The browser version matches the firmware*.
Might not match exactly, but in my experience its more than accurate enough and I am 95% it does match always.
Hope that helps Tushar
So I was looking for a solution here as well. I came across this article by Phillip Studiniski that shows you how to measure the iPhone screens by screen resolution.
https://analytical42.com/2017/detect-and-track-iphone-models-in-google-analytics/
I attempted to go this route. The problem I ran into was that I was just getting a raw output of the screen resolution in GTM, it would look something like this.
{"width":375,"height":667,"ratio":2.0000000454608653}
No problem I thought. I moved this into a RegEx table. Click here to see a sample RegEx for this Once I did this, I was able to properly identify the iPhone version with a variable and then send it to Google Analytics through Google Tag Manager variable.
I then had to update the iPhone models a bit since it has been a while since the article was written. (https://iosref.com/res) This includes the models from 11 to 13.
BOOM! iPhone version now being sent to GA. Hope this helps everyone.

PayPal MECL for iOS 6?

Maybe I'm just an idiot but I can't find a download for MECL anywhere.
I need to use MEC, not the SDK, because my target audience includes countries outside the US.
Additionally, according to this page iOS versions above 4.0 are not supported...is this accurate?
Thanks.
