 System voice commands require the prefix `röstkommando`: `upprepa`, `avbryt`, `hjälp`, `alternativ`, or `paus`. Without the prefix, the same words remain ordinary dialogue. Speech recognition and synthesis are browser-dependent; release acceptance must record which real iPhone/Safari/VoiceOver and Android/Chrome/TalkBack combinations were actually checked.
 
-On iPhone and iPad, Safari may require a direct tap or key press before it permits speech output. The frontend primes speech silently on the first player gesture and then reads game replies automatically. If the first-visit introduction did not play, use **Läs introduktionen igen**; while playing, **Läs senaste repliken** in the voice settings is the recovery action if Safari blocks a reply. The introduction is only marked as heard after the browser reports that speech actually started. The speech queue avoids an immediate `cancel()` followed by `speak()`, which older WebKit releases can drop.
+On iPhone and iPad, Safari may require a direct tap or key press before it permits speech output. The frontend primes speech silently on the first player gesture and then reads game replies automatically. If the first-visit introduction did not play, use **Läs introduktionen igen**; if a game reply does not start, a **Läs senaste repliken** button appears in the dialogue, with the same action also available in voice settings. The introduction is only marked as heard after the browser reports that speech actually started. The speech queue avoids an immediate `cancel()` followed by `speak()`, which older WebKit releases can drop.
 
 The browser and API stay on the same public origin, `https://ai-spel.k3s.k0.nu`. The ingress routes `/` to this frontend service and routes `/api`, `/version`, and `/health` to the Rust service. That keeps the current server-side session cookie same-origin and avoids browser CORS configuration.
