Hi,

Google Docs, Sheets and Slides are all usable in both Safari and Chrome on the 
Mac.  Notice that I said "usable", not "accessible".  They work with both VO 
and ChromeVox but are rather finicky and you have to mess around a lot to find 
editable areas and such.  I find them easier to use in iOS than on the web on a 
Mac.  Web apps like Google Drive and Hangouts/Meet are more accessible and 
easier to use from my prospective, but that could be due to less editable areas.

Sorry, no guide that I'm aware of, but it's possible that there's one out 
there.  I've just never looked for one.

Later...

Thanks for this - I haven’t used google drive or google docs much so any info 
on how they work with VO would be great - or if you can point me in the 
direction of an idiots guide to google drive/docs I would be really grateful 
Best wishes
