Why is it a pain?
Either tell Siri, turn VoiceOver off or on, whichever.
Or, triple tap the side button, just like you did on the home button.
Unless someone changed the default action. If triple tapping the side button
isn't toggling VO on or off, checkk Settings, Accessibility, and at the botto

Check your accessibility shortcut in settings, accessibility.
It never does that on my phone, or anyone else's phone with whom I have worked.
Unless, and this is important, you have more than one thing toggled on under
acfessibility shortcut.
Or, you have some kind of assistant turned on.
We checked. You use triple tap side button, then in order to accomplish the
command, you have to double tap Voiceover near the bottom of the screen;
otherwise, you're in limbo.

That's interesting Carolyn. A triple tap of my side button on 16 Pro will turn
it on and if I triple tap again it will turn it off. You do have to do your

Right, tripple tap, then you have to go to Voiceover on the screen and double
tap, or it won't turn off. Then to turn it back on, you have to double tap the
bottom of the screen, which you can't hear Voiceover, then it comes back on. We

Well, Maria, once you get the thing on in Accessibility, if you use power

I suggest opening the Watch app on your phone, going to Accessibility, then
