Automatic Language Switching: The default for JAWS automatic language detection has been changed back to detect languages Based on Markup of Documents and Web Pages, since the standard for specifying languages in documents and web pages is to use the appropriate language tags. This will remain the default for the initial 2025 release. If you encounter a situation where JAWS does not switch the voice to a specific language even if an appropriate voice is available, open Settings Center, expand the Text Processing group, expand the Language processing subgroup, and change the Detect Language setting to use the new option, Based on AI predictions. Thank you to everyone who provided feedback on this new feature. Aria and Web: JAWS now says “on” or “off” when interacting with switch elements on web pages. When encountering interactive elements on a web page that use the Separator ARIA role and JAWS Forms Mode is set to Auto or Semi-Auto, Forms Mode activates when focus moves to these elements. When using Auto Forms Mode and you navigate in and out of an edit field using UP or DOWN ARROW, addressed an issue where the prompt was announced when exiting the field instead of the next item gaining focus. Using table navigation commands (ALT+CTRL+ARROWS) in some web-based applications no longer causes the browser’s menu bar to activate. In Forms Mode, reduced speech verbosity when navigating ARIA menus by eliminating additional “menu” announcements for subsequent menu items. If a table on a web page supports changing the sort order of a column, JAWS now properly recognizes the new sort order and speaks and displays it in Braille. Labels for edit fields on web pages are now displayed correctly in Braille. In certain instances, radio buttons no longer appear as having multiple labels. If Mouse Echo is enabled, JAWS reads open browser tabs when hovering over them with a mouse. Improved JAWS interaction with selecting items in Angular tree grids. When reading a PDF fi |

Picture Smart AI Updates: This update offers even more improvements to Picture Smart AI thanks to the great feedback we continue to receive from users. These include a new method for describing an image based on the current context as well as the ability to begin asking for specific details the first time an image is submitted. All-in-one Keystroke: The new keystroke reduces the effort of using Picture Smart AI by using only, INSERT+SPACEBAR, P, ENTER, to get a description based on your current application and context. This eliminates the need to remember multiple keystrokes constantly. For instance: If someone is presenting in Teams, it describes the current slide. If you are on a web page, it describes the current image or control. If you are in File Explorer, it describes the currently selected file. If you are in PowerPoint, it describes the entire screen. Ask a Question Before Submitting a Picture: In situations where you already have some basic knowledge about an image, you can now include ALT with any Picture Smart command to immediately ask a question about specific details. For example, suppose you were shopping on Amazon for a product like an Multicooker or Air Fryer. You already have a basic idea of what the product is, but you may want to know upfront if the product contains physical buttons or a touch activated display. You could press INSERT+SPACEBAR, P, ALT+C, type your question followed by ENTER, and Picture Smart AI attempts to answer the question about the selected image instead of just providing a general description. Once the results containing the response are displayed, you can still use the Ask questions about this image link to ask follow-up questions if needed. Feedback for Cropped Images: After running Picture Smart AI, you will now be alerted to any potential problems with an image that may result in poor descriptions. For example, if your browser window is not maximized, images may be clipped, leading to inaccurate descriptions. In this c |
