Hi Margaret, I seem to recall folks posting after the release of iOS 17 that the double tap time-out setting was changed to lower the speed needed to execute a double tap. The effect of this would require you to double tap faster in order for it to register.
Go to Settings, Accessibility, VoiceOver, and double tap time-out witch will be near the bottom of the screen. Mine was currently set to .25 seconds and I executed the increment button to make it .3 seconds which I like better since I don't have to double tap quite as fast. Play around with that setting to see if it helps you. Good luck.
