It sounds like you've got your volume buttons set to change the volume of the ringer and alerts. You can change this by going into settings, then sounds, and telling the phone to not use the volume buttons to adjust the ringer/alert volume. there's an adjustable slider there where you can set the volume of the ringer. Once you set this level, it will stay the same once you've set the phone to not change the volume using the volume buttons. All other volumes like the volume of music/streaming can be adjusted using the volume buttons. It's a two finger swipe down to read from where you're currently at to the end.

I have a couple basic questions: 1. Seems like I end up turning the volume down so that VoiceOver isn't blaring when I'm around other people, but then I find I miss hearing my phone ring. Is this normal behavior that the volume of the ringer and VoiceOver are tied? What do you do to not have the volume super loud, but not miss phone ringers. (My phone is often near me or on a desk/counter, not on me where I would feel the vibrate.) 2. I'm used to standard speech software where you can start a read-to-end function from wherever you are in an email. So, if I right flick through some initial lines of text to get past the clutter at the top an of email or webpage, I would like to start a read to end function from that new point, gut it seems the the 2 finger flick up always starts me back reading at the top? Is this correct? Any advice on ways to jump past the initial clutter or pick up where you left off with a read-to-end? 3. I get the Access World monthly newsletter. I've started reading the articles on my phone using Safari. Kind of building off the last question, i try to navigate to the article and seems like I have to wade through a bunch of stuff at the top of the web page first. And, while I hear a "jump to article" link on the page that works on my desktop PC with Window Eyes, I can't get that link to work and/or be able to start a read-to-end function. Any advice here from others who read this newsletter -- just as a specific example to help me learn to navigate more efficiently? Thank you!

Re: a couple basic iPhone questions
In this case, you can set the ringer to one hundred percent. That way, you can be listening to music at a soft leval but when a phone call comes in the volume would be at that full volume you set it at. --- Regards, Alan Go Chicago Bears in 2013!
