As long as you specify that Messages should appear on the lock screen you should be able to ask SIRI to read them, it always works for me and I never did anything special other than to allow Messages on the lock screen. This also allows me to review them with Voiceover and to reply to a message without ever unlocking my phone.

It should be just a little farther down the screen beyond the Siri responses button. Don’t activate the responses button and you should run into them since you are running the same phone as I. I probably need to grab 14.5.1.

Richard, Running iOS 14.5.1 on an SE 2020 iPhone and I have the phone set to read text messages on the locked screen, but it doesn't. Here's what it says, Allow Siri when locked, On, dimmed. I have Announce Calls & Siri Responses bothe set to, Always. Where do I find this new announce messages setting? Thanks mooy moocho. Stay safe and take care.

Do you have Allow hey Siri when locked on. You may also want to look at the new setting concerning announce messages. That may only be for certain headphones, but give it a try. You still may have to unlock the phone, but let us know.
