Yes. You can
When I use Speak Screen to read Apple Books with screen then locked, it always
stops reading after a couple of pages. No idea why.

It’s for people with low vision who might not need voiceover. I like it,
because it’ll read a book with the iPhone sleeping, which voiceover can’t do.

The settings under accessibility, Spoken Content, are mostly directed at people
who do not use VoiceOver.
Speak Selection puts up a button when text is selected so you can have that
text spoken.
Speak screen allows you to swipe down with two fingers from the top of the
screen and have it read;
What exactly is speak screen? What does it do? How is it helpful with the use
of the phone.

Go into Settings, accessibility, Spoken Content, and turn it off.

Speak screen is primarily for non-VoiceOver users in my opinion.
It allows the screen to be spoken when you do a two finger swipe down from the
top of the screen, i.e. the status bar.
When this is on, you can then lock your phone and it will keep reading.
Some people find this useful when reading

To be a bit more specific, you initiate speak screen by placing focus on one of
the items in the status bar such as the time and then swipe down with two
fingers.

Hi Harry and all,
I can't find any way to make the screen scrol while Speak Screen is active in
Kindle books if the screen is locked. This is too bad because it used to be a
nice way to read Kindle books.
The screen will scroll while reading iBooks with Speak Screen and the screen
locked.
Hi Harry and all,
I just tried this and had the same experience; the phone didn't turn the page
when I got to the end. I know it used to do this. I'll try going through the
Kindle settings to see if I can find anything that might help.
Best,
Anna

Enable it in the usual accessibility settings area. Once on, touch the status
bar and do a two-finger swipe down. After a few seconds, Speak Screen will
start reading the screen using the voice and speed you set in Settings. You can
change the speed, as well as seek through the audio, using the
My understanding is the same. MBraille and similar apps type text, but they
save it internally; the actual screen holds only the keyboard. Braille Screen
Input in iOS itself will work just fine, I imagine, because text is actually
entered in real time.

I believe apps like MBraille and even BrailleTouch for those who still
have it do not represent the actual text on-screen until the text is
exported one way or another.

Correct, however with contracted Braille input the text is held in some kind of
buffer until you press space or newline. This is because the translator can't
figure out otherwise if for example you mean b or but. There is a gesture
to translate the word immediately though: two finger flick
