Screen curtin on iPhone 5s.

Is there a way to stop the screen curtain from going on? I ask because I am a brand new iPhone user, and somehow, my phone mistakenly thinks I am making the gesture to activate this, and I am not. It turns off Voice Over and my sighted roommate has to turn it back on for me. This also leads me to a separate question. Namely, I couldn't find the triple click home button in the accessibility settings. Does this still exist in the 5s? If so, how do you get to it?

Hi. First off, to turn on the curtain it's three fingers, tapping the screen three times. To turn off speech, not necessarily voice over, that's three fingers, twice. On two taps on three fingers, speech off. The same wil toggle it back on. As for accessibility shortcut it's in accessibility under settings. Enjoy the phone. What will help is if you go to the voice over practice and open that. Then you cna flick tap pinch and other stuff until you knwo what's going to happen. The phone just says what it does. If you need more help contact me off list.
