A Voiceover Audio question

Hello friends:

I want to apologize in advance because I think this question has already been answered; however, I cannot seem to find it in the forums so must beg your indulgence. If I do a Facebook Live or a YouTube posting, how do I prevent Voiceover from being heard by people listening to what I am broadcasting? I appreciate any assistance. I am running the latest version of iOS 13.3 on an iPhone 11.

Thanks in advance.

I would first begin the video, then locate the end video button with your voiceover on; now you can three finger double tap to stop voice over. when you are done with your video, since your cursor is on the end video button, just double tap on the button to end the video; since voiceover is off no one will hear the speech output, but you will end the video.

Thanks for the suggestion. I know it used to be possible to use Voiceover without having everything it read be heard by those listening and/or watching the live broadcast. That is useful for being able to respond to comments. Thanks again for the suggestion.

Use a wired lightening ear bud to be able to hear your VoiceOver speech or use a blue tooth device although you will experience some significant lag.
I am not ever aware this is possible that microphones on an iPhone could filter out the sound of VoiceOver.

Wow, all this time I've been thinking that a lightning headphone would still send Voiceover feedback. I will give that a try. Sometimes the most obvious solutions are the ones we never try. Thanks a million.
