*Subject:*Re: Sudden voiceover issue with iPhone 7+
I was wondering if Siri could be used to restart the device; thanx
for the tip on how to restart the device. I remember with older
phones, it used to be the home+power button, but now, all that seems
to do is take screenshots.

Have you tried double tapping with two fingers, to toggle speech?
If this doesn’t work, then hold down the power button and, I
believe, the volume up buttons for ten seconds. Then, release the
volume key, while still holding the power button. I really wish
Siri could be used to restart devices, but ah well.

I just started noticing the day before, then right after
upgrading to the latest fermware, that for no apparent
reason, voiceover would still be active, but would
mysteriously stop speaking, even after disabling and
relaunching. I’ve tried a soft reset which if I remember
correctly, you’re supposed to hold down the home button and
power button at the same time for about 30 seconds, but when
I do that and release them, all that does is take
screenshots. I can’t even power my phone off properlywhen
this happens without help, sense the double-tap feature isn’t
working, and when I tried making a call using Siri, the whole
screen freezes after the call is placed, so I have no keypad,
no way to end the call, etc. Has anyone else ever had this
issue?
