Show answer

Q. I use something besides System Access as my primary screen reader but I still want to use Sero. How do I do that?

Show answer

In most cases, you will need to take no particular action. When you are using Sero, your screen reader will be in a suspended mode, but will be ready for use when focus is shifted away from Sero.
