Voiceover keeps being unstable despite iOS 17.5.1

Why does Voiceover keep being unstable despite iOS 17.5.1?

I still have too many issues that I had with previous iOS 17 versions, and if I’m not mistaken, iOS 17.5.1 would be the last one.

When I’m listening to a document, It stops reading in the middle of the text or jumps to different paragraphs without me doing anything.

At times, when I’m using Safari, it gets very sluggish and I have to re-open it to cure this.

When I’m writing a mail, specially in the Gmail app, it doesn’t read the correct entered letter nor the correct line in the rotor.

When I’m reading the notifications in the Lock Screen, it goes off, so I need to use Spoken content in stead.

Still, but rarely, the volume increases to max, or Voiceover gets silent for a little while.

Is it a way to entirely fix these bugs? They’re very annoying.

Thank you

iPhone 13, iOS 17

Yes, but it happens to me when I’m reading images.

The most annoying issues though, are that it stops reading randomly a document or a Web page online, and it goes off while reading the notifications in the Lock Screen, to prevent this from happening, I use Spoken Content.

I don’t know how can I fix it, I’ve sent feedback to Apple too many times but it’s still not fixed, or at least it keeps happening to me
