Announcing Superscript value with voiceover on IOS

Dear all,

In one of our applications we have a superscript value. This value is
perfectly reading and getting identified as superscript element with
JAWS 15 on the desktop browsers. When the same content is read with
Voiceover on IOS device (iPhone 7.1.1, iPad 7.0.2) the behavior is not
as expected. Voiceover is reading the content first and the
superscript value in the next swipe without pronouncing it as a
superscript element. This leaves an ambiguity to the user.

We want to understand if any one of you have experienced this and what
could be a possible approach to resolve without impacting the
experience for desktop screen reader users experience and also should
be working with talkback on Android.

To have an experience of the same find it in the below link.
