My son is blind and is using Microsoft Teams for school now. He has figured out how to navigate around the Microsoft Teams app on his windows laptop using NVDA and the keyboard, but is unable to actually select the 'Join' button whenever there is a meeting. I've contacted support who just referred me to generic articles like https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/use-a-screen-reader-to-join-a-meeting-in-microsoft-teams-7f176bc8-68a8-4984-b9b3-ae907a8eaa69#PickTab=Windows, but we've tried everything suggested and nothing worked. My son is very used to finding how to access things using NVDA so it just seems like it's not possible now. Please do let me know if there are some secret steps we're missing.

Hello. I am a user of a screen reader living in Turkey. We want the Emel voice, which is used as a text-to-speech voice in Microsoft services such as Microsoft Edge Chromium, Office 365, based on Azure, to be used in Windows screen readers. We find Emel voice more successful than Tolga Mobile voice. There is an excessive pause problem only in punctuation and at the end of the sentence. I think that is because it is server based. I think it will perform better if the Emel synthesizer is running on the device and integrated into Windows 10. Thank you from now. Best regards...

Without disclosing my disability I feel I have been let down by Microsoft.
I am a student nurse who purchased a surface pro 4 in good faith from your company to complete my degree. It offered the majority of what I required for ease of access.
Approximately 2weeks ago I began to experience flickering and ghosting on my system. I have also lost and corrupted some of my files for University.
Following a diagnostic check from one of your team. They were going to replace my system as it has a fault with the equipment which was as a result of the original fittings which Microsoft built and sold to me.
However, I have since learned that my device is out of the replacement warranty. It is not repairable, and I would be expected to pay £568 to have it exchanged. Which I cannot afford either.
I can see that this ended in January 2020 for me, but I have not had this issue before and this now seems highly unfair.
I rely on this and have not really been left with a reasonable solution.
I am asking if this could be escalated to find a reasonable resolution. I had to pay a considerable amount for this, and it is not a fault I could have predicted.
Please can you help me to have this repaired to a functional standard or replace the unit for me as a gesture of good will. As my issue does not arise until after this period. Serial number: 049445261853 Car manufacturers hold this onus with evidently faulty equipment. Mine gets so hot it could also possibly start a fire

My children are both doing remote learning using MS Teams on school-provided iPads. There are three critical improvements that are needed to improve accessibility for young children (but they would also greatly help other users such as those with disabilities and some elderly users):
1) The user needs to be able to "pin" the toolbar to the bottom of the screen so it stays visible or, better yet, set that as a preference in the Settings. It's difficult for a kindergartner to get that toolbar to come up quickly enough to answer a teacher's question.
2) The meeting host (i.e., the teacher) needs to be able to unmute participants. I understand if this raises privacy issues but perhaps if the host selects this setting a warning message can pop up when users join?
3) The "raise your hand" tool in the iPad MS Teams app needs to be in the main menu bar and not "buried" in the three dots menu. Combined with 1), raising their hand is very difficult for many young children.

Thank you for your consideration.

I love to use Ctrl + Win + C to enable Windows' colorblind friendly mode, but how awesome would it be if we could take a detailed ishihara + color sliders test that could create a color profile for each of our monitors so we could have a customized color profile according to our vision limitations and abilities and some sort of color balancing that would compensate what we can't see and make us able to see the world a bit more colorful and closer to what normal people can see. As much as possible, of course, but it can be quite efficient for people with partial color blindness, since we have all cones, but some are skewed towards different colors like yellow cones instead of green or more/less sensors for each color channel.

It would be really awesome to be able to see on my computer what I can't see in real life and a strong selling point!

I am completely blind and use JAWS and Narrator. Please make the multi-level list dialogue accessible. Right now, crucial parts of this dialogue are not able to be used either by Narrator or JAWS, in either Word 2019 or 2016. I can't navigate the list library because it's sset out in a grid whose rows horizontally wrap so that I can't tell where I am inside the grid. secondly, I can't use the 'include from level' feature when defining my own lists because you've made it a combo box which a screen reader cannot access. An edit spin box would be far less complicated and more effective here. Thirdly, I can't use many of the features which determine number continuity and, while I worked around this by doing far more work than would otherwise be necessary, this flies in the face of all accessibility principles. Please, Microsoft, do not assume that all accessibility creators or would-be advanced users of Word are either sighted or low vision.
