When can we hope to have vocal traffic warnings?

I get vocals: TERRAIN, TOO LOW, 500 which are nice, but vocal traffic warning help me keep eyes outside.

Other apps provide this so it's not rocket surgery.

This subject was broached awhile back.. Some thought it a good thing and others idn't want it.  SO maybe there was not a consensus for Walter to move it up teh list of "wants".

Hi Walter:

Hope you are doing well...healthwise. Staff is probably working from home..Right?

I flew with a friend in his 206 with Garmin again and loved the vocal traffic alerts. Can't see why there is so little interest. When we got an alert we both looked in the direction indicated. I guess I'm just parinoid after surviving a midair years before ADSB. 

Since we already have vocal alerts for TERRAIN!...TOO LOW!....500... etc, 

Much better than the current annoying  sound alert that makes you look down instead of out. Another safety feature for IFLY.

Of course it could be disabled for those who cansider it TMI.

Have you seen my posts about SKETCH not working on my Android phoneand two tablets? Locks up IFLY and I have to clear all open apps to get out of IFLY app. Version 11.0.74

Also, touching SKETCH in the menu causes IFLY to close on Windows 10 laptop.

I don't see the need for SKECH so it is not an issue for me but my fiends with IFLY try to use it an can't.
