I figured it out. Go to Voice over, tap on verbosity and roter actions and
turn sceen description to off.
Sorry if this has been posted already.

Well, by god, Dianne, that is a way to fix it! Now, there just has to be a way
to turn off image description globally in the way that swiping up turns it off.
It is off in settings already, but that swiping up when it is in the rotor does
something else. I will write to Apple Accessibility later today and tell them
what you figured out. Maybe they will then know how to get turning it off in
settings will really turn it off. Thank you very much.

Sorry, but that message went out before I had a chance to fix it. I don’t
get annoyed with that nice guy Or whatever, but would prefer not to have it if
I could have the option. I put this on before. The option I found worked is to
put describe image In your rotor. Rotor has it where you can put it in there
and when it’s in there it says if you Flick up or down it’ll say on or off. So
if you are in some thing that you do not want that to say, just click it off.
You don’t have to go in it, but you just go to where it says off and you will
be fine. At least, that is what works for me. Let me know if anyone tries it
and good luck.

I kind of feel the same way. It’s not like I have to wait until VoiceOver stops
speaking before I can touch or swipe to the next thing, and it is kind of
interesting to know what others are seeing when they look at their phone. That
being said, I get it when people are annoyed by what they consider to be
frivolous chatter, which is why this should be configurable, and at least in
the case of image recognition, Apple’s intent was to make it configurable.
Therefore, if you’re still hearing this text after you’ve tried to turn off
settings like image recognition then it should definitely be reported to Apple.

I don’t find it intrusive either; if anything it’s fascinating. I wonder
whether it’s trying to recognise the icons on whatever screen I’m on.

I haven't really noticed this until people started talking about it.
I've gotten the "sky" information in an icon in the Sirius/XM app. I
have an iPhone 11 with iOS 14.2. Usually I ignore the sky info since
it is not what I'm listening for and extra information. Plus, it does
not seem that intrusive to me, just a short blurb added onto whatever
I'm doing. I can see how it would get annoying though.
Be well,

Deb, I was hoping I had saved this message so that I could reply to it. If
you haven't already done so, I would urge you, and anybody else running 14.2
on an older phone, to contact Apple Accessibility, being that you have
experienced these extra descriptions on a phone that does not have the
image description stuff. It may be something about 14.2, and the image
feature, in reality, is not the problem. It will be interesting to know just
what it is.

I just talked to somebody at Apple Accessibility, and he does think that it
might be some kind of problem with image description. When I shared the
screen and showed him examples of what it is doing, he said that yes, it was
trying to describe an image that was there. Turning on image recognition
gave a better description of the image, but turning it off, as it were,
didn't turn it completely off. He is going to talk to somebody about it,
being that he was able to duplicate the problem on his device, and will
allegedly get back to me on Thursday, early evening. He said that the others
who are experiencing this should report it to them, being that the more
complaints they have about a given issue might make it seem more important.

I am getting it on a lot of screens. It is as if VoiceOver is attempting to
describe an image. Besides night sky which seems to be its favorite, it has
told me such things as adult, moon, document, sunglasses, and baseball hat.
I have everything that remotely might be related to images, emojis, speak
screen, etc turned off, and it still occurs. This is on an SE 20, running
14.2. I wonder if it is only happening on the SE 20 phones? I have tried
twice today to get in touch with Apple Accessibility, waiting long periods
both times before disconnecting, nobody answered. I will keep trying.

Hello Listers,
What is the night sky that always shows up when I have my iPhone locked?
Also, is there a way to take it out of the screen, so it doesn’t show along
with flashlight and battery usage?
