I think, to make sure that Microsoft takes accessibility into consideration, we need to get as many blind and vision impaired users into the insider program as possible, so we can give a lot of access

If there was one time that Microsoft kind of listens to my feedback, is when I reported an issue in the iOS version of Skype where, I think, VoiceOver is not reading what I'm typing in the message edi

Another suggestion is to use the Facebook and Twitter mobile apps. From my experience, Facebook iOS app works fine with VoiceOver. I hardly use the Facebook website nowadays as the app is more conveni

You actually brought up the point that I forgot to bring up in my last message lol. Anyways, I'm not sure as well; and I think the lack of keyboard shortcuts is probably my biggest complaints about th

When you open Skype 8, NVDA treats it just like a normal web page. So if you can navigate the web using NVDA, then you can navigate around the interface of the new Skype 8 as well.

As a business student, I wonder how viable as a business model it would be if I was to set up a firm dedicated to providing NVDA tech support and consultant for organizations. Of course, any tech supp

From my experience, Skype 8 is actually accessible. There's actually an add on for NVDA that I think improves the accessibility of Skype 8 (I think it's mentioned in one of the NVDA Con 2018 sessions)

Hi all, Subject says it all. Basically on my Windows 10 laptop NVDA won't read/announce contact suggestions, both in the native Windows 10 Mail app and the new Outlook.com. Has anyone experiencing thi

From what I can see, it's not being opened in a separate tab, it's more like a popup but I couldn't find any button to close the chat.

I did further testing with NVDA, specifically when typing a message and trying to copy messages in the chat window, and the results were very satisfying. As I mentioned, NVDA treats the new Skype 8 in

Why would you want to use such an old version? Version 2017.3 still works Wwith Windows XP

NVDA 2017.4 requires Windows 7 or later, and I do think Skype 8 also requires Windows 7.

Hi, I recently updated Skype to the new Skype 8 via Ninight. I did just gave NVDA a try, and I must say, I'm quite satisfied with how NVDA performs (haven't try going into the settings yet though). Th

I use Wordpress.com and it's very accessible, at least if you do all your admin work on the standard Wordpress dashboard by adding /wp-admin to the end of your blog's domain. Before, I use a service c

I also noticed that Groups.io cuts out the full email address when viewing on the web. Not sure either why this has happened, probably something to do with antispam protection.

Tiflotecnia's Vocalizer worked quite well actually, but one historic complain that I have is that for certain languages (especially Asian languages like Thai) the synth won't read certain characters w

Nice to know that at least there will still be a new update for Vocalizer by Tiflotecnia. Guess I'll just have to wait until when ever the announcement is made...

Hi all, Is there any news regarding the new update for the Vocalizer for NVDA by Tiflotecnia?

I think Skype 8 won't support XP; Microsoft ended XP support more than 3 years ago; NVDA 2017.4 will not support XP; even Jaws 16 and newer no longer supports XP. Given that Windows 7 still has a few
