Hi,

It is a 3-finger double tap to silence speech.  3-finger triple tap will
turn the screen curtain on and off.

HTH,
Annette

Joyce, triple clicking the home button should toggle on and off VoiceOver.

Try triple tapping with 3 fingers on your screen to turn on or off speech,
which isn't the same as turning on and off VoiceOver.

Also, you can hold down the home button and ask Siri to turn on VoiceOver.
