Hi, I have purchased the new Iphone 16 but whenever I pick up the phone or move it at all Voice-over tells me the time before closing the screen again. I have turned off the 'touch screen to wake' control, so I should have to tap the side power button to wake it. However this sensativity to motion is what brings it to life. Does anyone know what I should be doing to fix this? It it is relevant, the phone is in a book style leather wallet. Many thanks

Display on setting
Go to display on setting turn off rase to talk. If you pick the phone will talk.
The Wallet
Hi Steve,
I wonder if the device is waking when the wallet is opened? I know in the past for Apple-designed wallet cases this was a thing, the screen would wake when you opened the lid.
Sounds like Raise to Wake
Holger might be right. Go to Settings, Display & Brightness, Raise to Wake. If it's on, turn it off.
There's no audio feedback when VoiceOver is disabled, so most sighted users are probably blissfully ignorant of how many times their phone wakes as a result of being jiggled in a pocket.
Yes, that’s it, it was…
Yes, that’s it, it was raised to wake! Thank you very much
