Chuck, have you tried turning Voiceover off, then turning it back on? Or turning your phone off, then back on? Those are easy rule outs, so I would bet you've tried each to no avail.

Hello Alan, Thanks for the suggestions, I have tried turning up the volume, and testing with the headphones in the lightning port. Still does not work. When I try to enter the passcode I can hear clicks as I tap on the numbers, but nothing is spoken. I’ve gone through settings, and I cannot figure this out! But thanks anyways!

Go to Settings, Sounds and haptics, Sound volume and set it to 100 percent. 2. Single finger swipe once with focus on Sound volume and you’ll move focus to Change with buttons and set to off. This will ensure that ringers and alerts will not be affected by any volume changes made to Voiceover, etc. using the volume buttons. 3. Go to your home screen and do a two finger swipe down to start Voiceover speaking each item from its current location or do a two finger swipe up to start Voiceover speaking continuously from the top of the screen. While it is speaking, use the volume buttons to get the Voiceover level exactly where you want it. 4. When you reset your phone by pressing volume up followed by volume down quickly and then holding down the right side power button for several seconds, make sure you’re not holding the volume down button for too long during this process. Doing so might inadvertently reduce the Voiceover volume. At least that happened to me at one time in the past with one of my earlier iPhone models. I’m using an iPhone 13 Mini which I believe you’re also using and be aware that sometimes the volume level on these devices gets inexplicably messed up for Voiceover users. This has been my experience especially when bringing Bluetooth devices such as Airpods, etc. into the mix. I strongly recommend that everyone using one of these devices keep a pair of lightning wired Earpods on hand for the times volume goes south. One time, I had a pair of Bluetooth earbuds housed in their case that connected to my iPhone on their own when I got up in the morning. Fortunately, I was able to barely hear sound coming from their case as I swiped on the screen. I was able to connect my wired Earpods and get full sound and go to Bluetooth settings and remove those Bluetooth earbuds. The $12 investment in a set of wired lightning Earpods is a very good investment in my opinion. I hope your issue has been resolved but if not, I hope the above might be helpful.

Hello everyone, On my new iPhone 13 mini, when I turn off the phone to reboot and then turn it back on, voiceover will not speak the numbers as I try to enter them for the pass code. Once I do enter them, through visual help, then VoiceOver works fine. Does anybody know what’s wrong? Chuck (mobile) Pleez x cuze enny tie ping or spelin air ores.
