Re: Using Google docs, etc., on mac with voiceover

Hi Simon, Well, I don't know about any shortcuts, and I can not imagine that Samsung made something just for the US. But here, without any shortcut is what you do. Go to menu, then system, then accessibility. When you open accessibility, voice Guide is the first thing in the list. It's a toggle

Hello E.T., If I remember correctly, like me, you have some usable vision. With that in mind, I will say that the iOS versions of many banking apps is more streamline, less cluttered, if you will. Personally, I prefer to use my ears rather than my eyes as I find that doing so is much less
