This pretty much describes my situation as my connection is slower than those old 56KB dial-up modems.

@jcsteh No problem. Looking forward to the new solution.

@jscholes Your aria-label/ aria-labelledby NVDA issue affecting spelling in focus mode is being worked on here: https://github.com/nvaccess/nvda/pull/18271
@jcsteh @NVAccess

@alexhall The fix is in the latest alpha, and it will be fixed in NVDA 2025.2. However, if you install the latest release of Windows Apps Essentials add-on, it'll fix it for you. Here's the direct add-on download link: https://github.com/josephsl/wintenApps/releases/download/25.06/wintenApps-25.06.1.nvda-addon
@NVAccess Why not include this fix in V2025.1.1 given its irksomeness?

@Aryan @jonathan859 @NVAccess No, please keep it as is. The start-up sound was always a nuisance.

@jakobrosin How natural and super-clear it sounds! Ironically, it sounds way better than Siri voices on iOS 18! I hope Apple does something for Siri voices in iOS 26 down the road.

New app added to the Accessible Android apps directory: Anytime Podcast Player accessible https://accessibleandroid.com/app/anytime-podcast-player/ @amugofjava #Android #App

@fireborn Yeah, with the Mac it's a bit more complicated than iOS.

Now all NVDA Start Menu fixes affecting Windows 11 24H2 are in NVDA Alpha 36759, and will ship with NVDA 2025.2. Direct alpha download link: https://download.nvaccess.org/snapshots/alpha/nvda_snapshot_alpha-36759,1b563fd4.exe
@NVAccess @jcsteh

@fireborn Oh! A stroke of bad luck.

@freya @fireborn Thumbs up!

@NikJov Ah, thanks.

@NikJov So any new US English voices, or any new variation of Siri voices? Guess VO doesn't have built-in detailed image descriptions, right?

@Dennislong82 Encouraging to know though a bit at odds with some other reports.

@fireborn My goodness! It wants to let everyone know that you're using UK English - smile.

@evilcookies98 I see. Food for Apple devs I guess - LOL!

@evilcookies98 Yeah it's a huge party-pooper.

@evilcookies98 Hmm - interesting. Let's see what early adopters on Applevis say.

@evilcookies98 Oh thanks. That's a bit scarry.

@evilcookies98 How? Can you type? Your "smoke" comparison is interesting.
