Hi Mary, Somebody else reported having issues with Voiceover not announcing the state of on/off toggles or what was selected and not selected in the Settings app. The solution for that person was to simply turn off the phone, wait 30 seconds or so and turn it back on. Give that a try, I just checked on my 5S and the On/Off state of the buttons in Settings, General, Background App refresh is correctly announced and also is automatically spoken when I double tap on an app to change it.
What goes away on my 5S are the DialTones, usually it's OK after a reboot, but then after a while hardly any DialTone plays when I dial a number. Currently only the 6 plays a DialTone, but since the keys still work normally I don't really care although I did write an email to Apple Accessibility about it. Just received a reply this morning, it's the standard " Thank you for your email. We appreciate the feedback and will pass this on to the appropriate people for their consideration." Reply.

There are many apps here, and you're supposed to double tap to toggle the setting. But if I double tap, I don't hear any setting change. The setting on or off is never shown. What am I missing?
