<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Aptos",sans-serif">I wrote a long support request to Perusall. I wish I knew what happens that makes Word online and Google Docs work well with screen readers, because the problem with Perusall is that turning
on caret browsing and turning off the virtual cursor or browse mode in a screen reader also eliminates the ability for it to give feedback or follow the focus or cursor.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Aptos",sans-serif">They insist it works with screen readers, which is why I’m trying to pursue this so intensively.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Aptos",sans-serif">Yeah, I am struggling to use it with a screen reader as well. I think the problem is the screen reader does not know it is a web application and thus is unable to read when you highlight text.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

looking for real-world feedback to speak to the accessibility.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
