Google Docs Live Edits Now Works on Assistive Devices

Google has made an improvement to the Live Edits feature in Google Docs. It now works with assistive devices like screen readers and Braille printers.

Users can access this live edits update by going to Tools under Accessibility settings, turning on screen reader support, and checking “Show live edits” in the same menu. A gradual rollout started on Tuesday, with a full rollout beginning on September 10th.

It's good to see Google paying attention to accessibility features, something that too often gets neglected by developers.
