On I O S, Apple requires that all browsers use the safari engine to
display web pages, so, really, there is not much benefit to using
another browser besides safari itself, unless having your history on
another browser sync to another device is important to you. Chrome on
the mac is useable with voiceover, though it doesn't work as well as
safari. I have found that some elements cannot be clicked on,
particularly clickable text that functions as a link, but is created
using java script. I think chromevox does have its place, and can be
useful when accessing certain sites with chrome, and the good thing is,
you can have chromevox installed and enable or disable it as desired.
For browsing on the mac, safari is my primary browser, but I will turn
to chrome if safari has problems with a particular site.
Original message:
I recently saw that there is an update for chrome for iOS. I don't know
about the Mac side. But I am sending this to both lists because I am
interested in the current state of the excess ability of this browser
on both platforms. I am not interested in learning chromevox, as I
think it is stupid to have to learn a whole new convoluted set of
keystrokes just to use one program. And in my long history of using
computers, I have gone through enough learning and unlearning of
keystrokes, that I feel I have earned the right to have excess ability
without having to learn yet another set of them, which will not be
applicable to the whole system. So, what kind of excess ability can I
have on the Mac with chrome using Yosemite and voiceover? How about on
iOS running iOS 9?
