My iPhone is not unlocking in voice assistant

My iPhone started saying everything out loud and now I can’t unlock it with my passcode. It says each number out loud after I type it in and then it says wrong passcode. It is not wrong.

Hello elkgrovegal33,


Thank you for using Apple Support Communities. Sounds like you've accidentally enabled VoiceOver on your iPhone. This is why certain numbers and selections are being read out loud. To disable this feature, follow these steps here: Turn on and practice VoiceOver on iPhone - Apple Support


Turn VoiceOver on or off
To turn VoiceOver on or off, use any of the following methods:
-Activate Siri and say â€śTurn on VoiceOver” or â€śTurn off VoiceOver.”
-If you’ve set up Accessibility shortcut, triple-click the side button or Home button (depending on your iPhone model).
-Use Control Center.
-Go to Settings  > Accessibility > VoiceOver, then turn the setting on or off.


Since you can't access your device, you might want to use Siri, Control Center for the triple-click of the side button to disable it.


We hope these steps are helpful. Thank you for using Apple Support Communities. Cheers.
