Hi Bryce,

It is not an app; it is a feature of nvda itself.
I use it often as my hearing is not the best and I want to know the exact spelling of a name or word.

So, say I come across the word Banff, as in Banff national park in alberta.
And I think was that an "f" or an :s:?
I use the right arrow to land on the letter I am not sure of, and press the down arrow twice quickly. That it, you will hear the alpha bravo equivalent.

I can't remember the name of this app where you could use your arrow keys and hear the letters alpha for A B for bravo ETC. Would some kind sole refresh my memory of this app? Thank You.

Monte, this does not work for me, it just moves me down 2 lines. I am starting to think I may have silenced NVDA and brought up narrator to get alpha, Bravo

charlie  for the letters. Thanks.

It isn't the down arrow on the main keyboard.  It is 2 on the numpad.  I don't know the laptop command.  2 on the numpadd when used with NVDA reads the current character and pressing  it twice says the phonetic name such as Charlie for c.

Hi


The following add on works with nvdda 2022.1 at the moment. It can be gotten from my drop box at https://www.dropbox.com/s/1jg8jvhmm354t65/EnhancedPhoneticReading-1.1.2-dev.nvda-addon?dl=1


If you are talking about the numeric keypad on the desk top version pressing the number 2 will do that.


The number 5 will do the word if done 3 times.


Hope it helps.

I’m going to have to grab that. I thought that was going to be picked up by nvda updator but I guess not.

I am missing some information here. Do you have to push the NVDA key to get this to work or does it not work in email? I have tried it a couple of times and have not been able to succeed. Thanks.
