    The new Edge on Xbox comes with improved accessibility for Narrator


    Recent Edge updates on the Xbox console have led to improvements and additions to how Xbox Narrator works in both its “Controller” and “Narrator” modes. For long-time screen reader users that may be new to using Xbox Narrator, you might think of these modes as your Xbox Narrator versions of “Browse” and “Focus” modes, available on other screen readers.

    The updated command list is below.

    Controller Mode (the default when Xbox Narrator is enabled)

    [table][tr][td]Task[/td][td]Button[/td][/tr][tr][td]Move the mouse cursor[/td][td]Left Thumbstick[/td][/tr][tr][td] “Up” key from standard keyboards[/td][td]Direction Pad: Up[/td][/tr][tr][td]“Down” key from standard keyboards[/td][td]Direction Pad: Down[/td][/tr][tr][td]Performs a “Click” on the mouse cursor[/td][td]A button[/td][/tr][tr][td]“Escape” key from standard keyboards[/td][td]B button[/td][/tr][tr][td]Move the focus to the address bar[/td][td]Y button[/td][/tr][tr][td]Move to the next open tab in the browser[/td][td]Right Bumper[/td][/tr][tr][td]Move to the previous open tab in the browser[/td][td]Left Bumper[/td][/tr][tr][td]Zoom in on the page[/td][td]Right Trigger[/td][/tr][tr][td]Zoom out on the page[/td][td]Left Trigger[/td][/tr][tr][td]Open the Xbox Guide[/td][td]Xbox button: single press[/td][/tr][tr][td]Open the power menu[/td][td]Xbox button: press and hold[/td][/tr][tr][td]Switch the Xbox Narrator to “Narrator” Mode[/td][td]Xbox button: double tap[/td][/tr][/table]


    Narrator Mode (toggled by pressing the Xbox button twice when the Xbox Narrator is in “Controller” mode)

    [table][tr][td]Task[/td][td]Button[/td][/tr][tr][td]“Arrow Keys” from standard keyboards[/td][td]Left Thumbstick[/td][/tr][tr][td]Move to the previous accessible item[/td][td]Direction Pad: Up[/td][/tr][tr][td]Move to the next accessible item[/td][td]Direction Pad: Down[/td][/tr][tr][td]Move to the previous focusable item[/td][td]Direction Pad: Left[/td][/tr][tr][td]Move to the next focusable item[/td][td]Direction Pad: Right[/td][/tr][tr][td]Do the default action for the currently selected item[/td][td]A button[/td][/tr][tr][td]“Escape” key from standard keyboards[/td][td]B button[/td][/tr][tr][td]Repeat the currently selected item[/td][td]X button[/td][/tr][tr][td]Moves the focus to the address bar[/td][td]Y button[/td][/tr][tr][td]Moves to the previous letter[/td][td]Right Bumper[/td][/tr][tr][td]Moves to the next letter[/td][td]Left Bumper[/td][/tr][tr][td]Opens the Xbox Guide[/td][td]Xbox button: single press[/td][/tr][tr][td]Opens the power menu[/td][td]Xbox button: press and hold[/td][/tr][tr][td]Switch the Xbox Narrator to “Controller” Mode[/td][td]Xbox button: double tap[/td][/tr][/table]


    We hope the updated experience improves your time navigating the Edge app with the Xbox Narrator!

    Xbox narrator cannot be closed. After windows narrator is closed, narrator still exists in the game

    I play xbox live games on the computer. After I log in to my account, the narrator will be automatically turned on, but it can't be turned off.
    I have tried to close the narrator of win10, but I can't also close the narrator in the game;

    I try to reinstall the system. Before I log in to xboxlive, there is no narrator, and there is no narrator who logs in to a new created account.However, once I log in to my own account, the narrator will open it. No matter whether I log out or switch accounts,
    it cannot be closed.
    Hello!

    I can only imagine how annoying that can be when the Narrator speaks your every move.

    I would recommend accessing your settings over your PC or Xbox Live Settings, then going to the Ease of Access section to disable the Narrator Feature. Or try possibly looking up Narrator in your settings to see if maybe the Narrator is still enabled.

    Xbox one Microsoft edge freezes.

    Hi

    There will be a new version of Microsoft Edge coming with the spring update. It is currently with the Insider Preview program and I can say it is vastly improved and streams videos without crashing.
