Typing Echo does not just occur in Google Docs. As for passwords, even if the password field is blank, VoiceOver will still report “8 Characters, password secure edit text”.On Sep 11, 2016, at 12:31 PM, Jonathan Cohn <[email protected]> wrote: Is this just in Google Docs? My understanding is that Google Docs uses a live region to speak items including typing echo. In terms of password lengths are these auto-filled in passwords if so this is probably a security feature. Knowing the length of a password makes it much easier to guess. When I am inputting passwords, VO usually tells me the length of the password I inserted.

Also, in password fields, no matter what it is, Voiceover says that it has 8 characters. Why is this? I am going to have to start creating documents using Google Docs and it is going to be very annoying to have every character echoed back to me, considering that these will be very lengthy documents. On a side note, since Safari doesn’t do this, is there any accessible way to use gDocs with Safari? I realize that Docs has a spell checker, but did they ever think to put a grammar checker in? This would of course be for things like Comma Splices, proper usage of semicolons, similar to MSWord.
