Re: Question about NVDA profiles and layouts

I've never tried it, but there is certainly an application dictionary add on so one can have bespoke words defined as spoken a certain way in an application. I've not seen it on the list, but it seems to work.

Re: NVDA for Android and IOS
Antony Stone
The effort involved in "converting" NVDA to run on anything other than Windows
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
would in my opinion be greater than starting from scratch (but with a good understanding of what a screenreader should provide for the user) and writing new code. Android (alongside which you might as well include Linux systems in general) and iOS work so completely differently from Windows that very little of the code which has been created for NVDA would be useful or transferrable. I've no idea how "easily" the Linux Orca screenreader system might be transferrable to Android, but that's about the only possibility I can think of for re-using code from an existing project to work on a different operating system. Regards, Antony.

Re: NVDA for Android and IOS
I remember that it was discussed a long time ago in the Romanian community. Someone suggested it for Android and Linux. Anyway, I don't know if this will be possible in the future. However, I consider that an NVDA aapplication for IOS isn't necessary, as
VoiceOver is a very good screen reader, That's my opinion as an IOS user. La 10.03.2019 17:24, Sarah k Alawami a scris:

Hi, Personally, I'd say that both of these are highly unlikely. The amount of effort involved for android would most likely be immense, and apple's sandboxing infrastructure would make this impossible unless something drastically changed in their approach. Apples and oranges and all that. Cheers,
Daniel

Re: NVDA for Android and IOS
That would be nice however "I'm not sure how much coding that involves as the android platform is way different to the pc platform in terms of what it can and cannot except. I forgot what android os is coded in I think java (not java script) Plus I'm not sure how hard or easy it is to get api and other access that nvda would need.

I've seen it on the pc versions of unlv, some forusm, and some general websites , so they do exist. It might not be a heading but it's obvious what it is by looking at the page. It looks like a unix path

NVDA for Android and IOS
Akshaya Choudhary
Are there any plans in the pipeline for developing an NVDA app for Android and IOS? Is it possible?
Right now, Talkback and Voiceover do support external keyboard, but it would be so much more convenient if there could be an NVDA application for mobile phones with similar commands as that of a PC. What do you guys think? -- Regards, Sociohack

irc clients and nvda
Daniel Wolak
Hi all,
I'm just wondering if anyone has any recommendations for an irc client that works with NVDA? I was using chatzilla for the longest time, and liked how I could review the output window as well. I tried mirc, however found that reviewing output with object nav (assuming there's not a more affective way to do it) often didn't contain all the text, and missed the last few lines. Thanks for any help, Daniel

Re: NVDA questions
ADRIAN POCOCK
Hi There is reference to what you are looking for, but it will require you to manually add things to nvda. Click here https://www.nvaccess.org/files/nvda/documentation/userGuide.html and search for custom and phonetic. Help for Braille is also in the manual. Regards Adrian.
