Hello, Amanda five I believe turns off VoiceOver and so far as I can tell at this point that seems to be the only good solution for this. But that won’t work for anyone what the significant hearing loss such as myself because then it cuts off any of the text messaging and or captioning text. So turning out VoiceOver probably isn’t a good option. I’m doing some looking myself to see if this is possible to do without cutting me off from the information. Because some of the speakers in meetings decide that it’s better to try to talk away from the phone imports it and then others “beneath the microphone and the phone to the point that the voice becomes badly distorted. This makes Zoom meetings so special. This is definitely one of my most vexing problems. But it does seem to look like everyone else is thinking of what I’m thinking it’s the best way meaning the way I’ve done it in the past but it comes with that issue that I mentioned above.
