Pasting from my post back in April:
This comes up every now and then.
Short answer is that the list is what folks make of it.
Long answer is that the name is probably a bit of an anachronisim at
this point. The list was founded years before iPhone OS became iOS and
then became accessible with VoiceOver. So as more and more folks became
iOS users the overlap with the existing Mac Voiceover users was an
obvious extension. Today we have another shift as folks embrace the
latest Apple gadget into the ecosystem and the marketplace of ideas
shifts into high gear. We'll find discussions of various scanners,
headsets and other devices folks hook up to their machine. A few even
venture Jaws questions as more Windows folks come over to the Mac but
bring their virtualized windows as a safety net as they come up to speed
on voiceover. In some ways the list is self selecting or self limiting.
If somebody dives to far into Windows land or goes too far down a rabbit
hole nobody will bother to answer and the thread just dies. So for me
it's all about Macs and their fun cousins that make the whole family
rich and interesting. Not sure we're there yet but Apple's push is for
the cloud, rather than the desktop, to be your digital hub. The
expectation is the desktop/laptop will fade over time such that
continuously connected devices will be our main means of consumption and
composition.

None of these apps are available for Mac.
Anyway, to address your topic, yes KNFB Reader is a lot better. But
you should have researched that.

KnfbReader is on sale today for $75. The normal price is $99. Is
knfbReader worth $75? I already own a license for textDetective. But
I've heard that knfbReader is much better. Is that true?
