iPhone 13 Voiceover and Time Announcement

Hello!

I'm currently using the Voiceover setting on my iPhone 13 version 15.0.1.

When the phone is in the locked screen position and using Voiceover, every time I move the phone it announces the time.

Can I turn the time announcement off but leave voiceover on?

Hi Brodriguez012,

Welcome to Apple Support Communities. We understand that you're having an issue with VoiceOver announcing the time when you move your iPhone. We'd like to help.

While there isn't a way to adjust this feature within the VoiceOver Settings, you may find it helpful to disable Raise to Wake on your device to stop that from happening. Check out this resource for tips on using and/or disabling that feature:

Use Raise to Wake on your iPhone

Hope that resolves your issue.

Cheers!
