The settings under accessibility, Spoken Content, are mostly directed at people who do not use VoiceOver. Speak Selection puts up a button when text is selected so you can have that text spoken.
Speak screen allows you to swipe down with two fingers from the top of the screen and have it read; like with Apple Books. The one advantage speak screen has over VoiceOver is that you can lock the phone and it keeps reading; which is good if you are reading an apple book; but not useful if you are using VoiceOver the vast majority of the time.

What does it do? How is it helpful with the use of the phone. Donna Yes. You can either expand the speaking bar, by double tapping I think, then tap on “stop”, or go to settings > Accessibility > Spoken Content > Speak screen and turn it off. See if either of those help.
