Hey fellow #BlindMastodon users! I’m looking for recommendations on two types of writing tools for Windows:
- Accessible text expanders
- Word prediction software
I use both #JAWS and #NVDA screen readers. I tried Espanso (an open-source text expander), but it didn’t work well with NVDA. I also tested Lightkey for word prediction, but it didn’t seem accessible.
As an #ActuallyAutistic person, word prediction would really help with my autism-related communication challenges.
Have you found any text expanders or word prediction tools that work well with screen readers? What has your experience been like? I’d love to hear your recommendations and thoughts!

@RareBird_15 @mastoblind @main No, but I have not used it in a while or extensively. Sometimes I feel lI had to fiddle with it, but the onesI’ve tried it with have worked. I don’t use it as much because most of my writing is in particular software that has its own shortcuts.
