if when trying The other technique your music came on then I think you only did a to finger double tap. if you have done at three finger double tap your iPhone should have said speech off .. from time to time this method is a very handy want to know one example is if you know they're going to be text messages coming in during the call voice-over not be telling you information Lake who sent the text and sometimes even read message to you. another use for this technique is if the voice over is not talking to you after trying just to increase the volume this is not working you would then Tapping the screen with three fingers twice your phone hopefully tell you speech on.
