why does the voice over on my ipad randomly turn itself on and how do i stop it?

Thanks for reaching back out Belize3050,

Do you perhaps have AssistiveTouch turned on? This article can show you how to check: Use AssistiveTouch on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

Also, are you triple pressing your home button at anytime while using the device? If you tell Siri to turn off VoiceOver, does that help?

Please let us know.
