Voice over and locked phone

hey there.

without knowing how I have done it my phone has switched to voice over mode, will not connect to my wifi or accept my password. Siri no longer works and if she does turn on says she cannot work as there is no wifi. Have tried turningoff and on, forced restart but no change. Any help please???

Turn VoiceOver on or off

  1. Summon Siri and say “Turn on VoiceOver” or “Turn off VoiceOver.”
  2. Triple-click the side button (on an iPhone with Face ID).
  3. Triple-click the Home button (on an iPhone with a Home button).
  4. Use Control Center.
  5. Go to Settings > Accessibility > VoiceOver, then turn the setting on or off.

Check your WiFi Router / Modem for --> Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points ...


Connecting to Wifi is the first part and then getting connected to the Internet is the second

  1. If you connect to Wifi, doesn't necessarily mean you are connected to the internet. If you are not connected to wifi could be a problem with iPhone settings or Router/Modem Settings
  2. If you are not connected to the internet is the sole issue of Router / Modem Settings. Contact your ISP immediately


For your Internet connection.

  • Over Cellular: contact your Carrier (Cellular Service Provider). The agency who issued the SIM to you
  • Over WiFI: Contact your ISP (Internet Service Provider), the agency who provided the Internet Service on your Modem/Router to you


However --> Connect iPhone to the Internet - Apple Support
