Ok. I think I have it! Put volume in rotor, pushed that to about 50 percent, made certain the volume for ringer and alerts was at 100 percent and then set my screen to reading a page and flicked down with 2 fingers. That brought down VO. Checked both settings on rotor and ringer and alerts, and they remained the same. Hoping this does it! I can fool with settings to find what is best for me. Thanks for your help and patience!

So you're going to want that off. that volume in settings is the ringer/alarm volume. Set that where you want your ringer and alarms volumes to be. Everything else will at that point be controlled by the buttons on the side. Then you need to go into general settings, accessibility and then voice over. flick until you hear rotor and go in there. Add volume to the rotor and this will allow you to control your voice over volume. this allows you to have some control over the speech volume if you need your media/notifications volume louder and want your speech not so loud. This is very tricky on the iPhone 7, but fairly easy on the SE. When I had the SE I had the rotor volume set at 35. this kept voice over down where it wasn't so loud but still gave me the ability to have media/notifications at a desirable level. So I set the rotor at 35 and then used the side keys to adjust my volume. > On 1/15/2017 3:10 PM, regina alvarado wrote: > Gordon, completely not understanding, sorry.
