Yes, you hear the effect when it's sent and the recipient hears/sees it if they are not running Voiceover. But as far as I can tell you do not get any visual/audio effects if you receive a message with said effect and if Voiceover is on. In this case you just gett he description.

Hi! I could hear the fireworks and lasers after I send them and I have confirmation fireworks could be heard on the other side. I also hear VO description. Maybe this is because I don't use Audio Ducking.

I was sending messages to my wife who was right next to me and I still had Voiceover on and was wondering why the fireworks and so on didn't play, then as soon as we turned off Voiceover all was as it should be. It also seems that once the message is received that if you go back to it in the conversation it no longers has the effect description. Lastly, my wife sent me a message where she used handwriting as I was curious as to what Voiceover would do with that. She just wrote "Hi" and Voiceover said the message had handwriting and "2 strokes". I then tried it and wrote something and Voiceover said it had 9 strokes, but of course there is no way for Voiceover to figure out what it says which is expected.

The way I tested it, and to see what it is like, is I sent messages to myself. I know, boring, but it works!! :) To get message effects to work, just do a double tap and hold on the send button and a pop up window will appear. Now there is no sound with the pop up window, and sometimes voice over does not focus on it, but if you explore the screen a little, then try swiping left or right, you will find yourself in the effects window. Now there is two types of effects, bubbles and screen. Bubbles are selected by default. If you land on bubbles, you will notice that voice over says, bubbles selected, one of two. Now there is three or four different bubbles to choose from, Slam, loud, gentle, and one more that I can not remember, smiles! I sent myself a test message with a slam bubble effect, when the message came in, voice over said something like, a message from Chris comes slamming in with dust flying up around it. So voice over does describe the effect, so that is pretty cool!! Now, in the pop up window, if you swipe one time past bubbles, you will hear screen. This is the second type of effect, so just double tap it to bring up the screen choices. Now if you swipe right you will come to the first of five screen choices, balloons. This is a button, so just double tap it to send the balloon effect with your message. If you swipe past balloons, first is a close button, then you will find a counter, and it will say, one of five. To move between the different screen effects, just flick up or down with one finger. As screen effects you have, balloons, confetti, lasers, fireworks, and shooting star. Now I know these effects might not work perfect, but since they are very graphical in nature, I think it is pretty cool that not only can we send the effects, but voice over also describes the effects when the message comes in. Thank you Apple for including accessibility! Now I will only mention one more thing. When you receive a message, if you flick up or down with one finger on the message, within the choices will be react. If you double tap on react, it lets you send a reply back with your reaction to the message. When you double tap on react, a pop up menu will appear with different reaction choices like, red heart for love the message, thumbs up, thumbs down, and more. To send your reaction, all you have to do is to double tap on your choice and it is automatically sent. Another cool thing!! I hope all of this has been helpful!
