Web content is spoken twice.

VoiceOver's been reading out links on web pages twice for some time now, and this happens in both Safari and third-party browsers. Well, I use Firefox Focus but I already guess that it should happen in every web browser on iOS, at least on my device. Anyone else have this issue?

I've seen it sporadically on a few websites. I haven't found a pattern to when it happens, but I also haven't looked into it hard.

This has started happening to me a lot lately. At first it was just every now and again. Now it's sometimes multiple times a day. All I can think to do is close Safari and open it again, or turn Voiceover off and back on. Both solutions either work or don't work with no rhyme or reason. I've been telling people who haven't to not update to iOS 17 at this point. It's so buggy and frustrating on top of long standing bugs that Apple hasn't bothered to fix. If I had another choice I'd be done with this for good. Paying upwards of $1500 for a phone that doesn't even work the way it should is infuriating. ''
