Hi.

You will find many very helpful accessibility features in settings>accessibility. For example, you can mute voiceover with a touch gesture and unmute it with the same gesture. Thus, you would never have to lock your phone to silence voiceover for a phone call. Take a good look at settings>accessibility. Smile. I think you will be pleased.

I notice that after call VO does no longer talk. I have to lock screen and that tend to work. That was in iOS 15.4.1 not sure if iOS 15.5 fix but is very unlikely.

I haven't had this bug for a while now. What phone do you have? What voice are you using? These could all contribute to this happening. I'm using alex iphone 12 with latest ios version and haven't ran accross though.

The settings buried very deep now.
VoiceOver, Audio, sounds and haptics.

I find it helpful to just go to settings and type what I'm searching for at the top. I typed sound and found it in the list that came up.

I just had this happen on discord. I had to switch the call back then turn on voiceover as I could not even turn it on after I turned it off. I also lost it yesrtterday while on a phone call, Never on facetime btw.
