voice over is a very annoying feature on iphone 12 and i'd like to permanently remove it

I have found a few times this year since i got the new iphone 12 that the voice over feature has activated itself due to button presses or something. It has wasted my time on a few occasions now, the most annoying when you don't have another devise to google how to turn it off. How i know how to turn it off but i'd like it permanently removed from my phone and i suspect i'm not the only one. Can this be offered by apple as an option.

iPhone 12 Pro Max

As a guess (can’t see what you’re doing to trigger VoiceOver), Settings > Accessibility > Accessibility Shortcut, and pick Magnifier or something other than VoiceOver?


And to directly answer your question, there is no means to remove VoiceOver.
