Sounds like you've had a go of it. Contact Apple Accessibility by emailing: accessibil...@apple.com Another question: after installing iOS 14, did you clear the App Switcher and reboot your phone? In my experience, this goes a long way to getting rid of bugs or hick-ups that happen after an update. Perhaps this wouldn't fix all of your issues, but it may help some. If you did, then pardon the question; just problem solving. I've had a few focus issues, or times when VoiceOver jumped or wouldn't read a part of the screen.
