again, from their website, IOS will be supported, but I can't remember about Macs. Contact them and ask about Mac support. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group. View/Reply Online (#122604): https://groups.io/g/blind-gamers/message/122604 Mute This

Hmmm if windows does go arm guys it will be more than jaws. Every blind game for 32 and 64 bit cpus will be gone to especially if those branches are dropped and I doubt that every system will go arm. As for arm systems, that will probably mean no supernova, nvda, etc, just narator. No

At Robert, fair enough. If they are able to have an updated version of the demo that supports JAWS, then I will happily give it a test. If I like it, I will absolutely support them, but until then, without the ability to give it a trial I will not part with a single cent. On 7/2/20, Justin Jones

Until JAWS is rendered obsolete, then it remains a screen-reader that requires support. To be honest, I wouldn't mind if Windows 10 did a better job with an out-of-the-box screen-reader, but that day is not here. More importantly, I am not going to give my support to a product that I cannot

They are still working on JAWS. They haven't abandoned it at all. [Their website lays out all accessibility plans,](https://otterinsanity.co.uk/what-is-coy) including making console versions accessible. You may want to ask them why initially supporting JAWS is 10 times more difficult than

They did say specifically that part of their accessibility budget would involve testing with premium screen readers. So if you want JAWS support, it kind of does have to be funded first. I worry that JAWS as a consumer product will fizzle out sooner rather than later. Once Windows 10 Arm hits,

Well assuming your point was support for "usual screen readers", then yeah, it kinda is. NVDA has wider adoption than JAWS nowadays (see recent webAIM surveys). I think it's also worth keeping in mind at times like these that the JAWS ULA precludes a demo version of JAWS being used to develop or

NVDA is as good as JAWS in a lot of ways now, it’s recognised as a fully fledged screen reader. I am an accessibility tester and NVDA is one of the screen readers I am required to test with. Best wishes. Ian Mcnamara > On 2 Jul 2020, at 17:21, Justin Jones wrote: > > Thanks > > I'm out

You have to use NVDA. Not JAWS, for now. They told me through FB Messenger that JAWS was giving them huge amounts of problems. Use NVDA for now, not JAWS. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group. View/Reply Online (#122591):

I downloaded and installed the demo, but cannot play the game--even when I am told that accessibility is enabled. I am a JAWS user, but I got nothing, and decided to see if Narrator would play nicely with it: same result. Anyone else have luck with the demo? I want to play it--and maybe, to
