The problem was solved when someone came over and hit the unmute button in
Tune-In radio. I had inadvertently hit it which was when the phone went
silent. I would not have thought that mute button would apply to all apps
and not just the app I was in.
The fact that Siri worked should have left me feeling hopeful that
it was the sort of thing it turned out to be, but for good measure, I backed
up the phone using I Tunes just in case I'd have to do a restore.
Luckily, I was able to tell Siri to turn voice over on and off, send
messages, check messages, etc., Deidre

Sounds like your volume might be muted. Once you're sure VO is on, go to a
home screen and do a two-finger swipe up, to get VO reading. Then hit the
volume up button repeatedly, and speech should soon return. If you can hear
VoiceOver sounds, but no speech, do a three-finger double tap to check that
speech isn't muted.

works just fine and will do anything I ask her to except I cannot read my
homepage or open or close apps none of those menus are reading even know
voiceover is on. That should have read that I turn voiceover on and off and
it seems to be working in general. I succeeded in powering the phone on and
then back like succeeded in turning the power off and then turning the phone
back on a little while later but that didn't solve the problem. I am
dictating this so please excuse me for the errors I'm not sure I can even
edit with the phone being malfunctioning at the moment. Is there a mute
button that lets say in tune in radio I hit that then is applying that meet
feature to all other functions?
