OS X Daily:

Siri has the ability to read anything on the screen of an iPhone or iPad to you. And yes, that means Siri will quite literally read aloud whatever is open and on the display of an iOS device, whether it’s a web page, an article, an email, a text message, anything on the screen will be read out loud by Siri, and you’ll even have controls for speeding up and slowing down speech, as well as pausing and skipping sections.

Pretty cool. To enable this feature, you’ll need to enable the Speak Screen switch in Settings > General > Accessibility. Once you do that, you can get Siri to speak your screen by telling Siri:

Speak screen

You can also get the same result by using two fingers to swipe down from the top of the screen.

Try this out. I think this is a fantastic accessibility feature. Try tapping the rabbit/turtle on the control panel that appears to speed up/slow down Siri’s voice. Nicely done. Note that this will only work in iOS.
