moderated Re: Microsoft Teams and Jaws

Teams has become the default communication tool at my company. In the early days of Teams it was bad enough that I had to engage with Microsoft accessibility and Teams PM. For the most part Teams now works pretty well considering how much they packed into it. Here are a few tips and observations in addition to what has been posted already. - The built-in help for Teams commands is opened by pressing
CTRL+slash. This opens a list of commands you can enter on along
with their keyboard shortcuts for reference. Alternatively, press
CTRL+period to open keyboard shortcuts. - The JAWS focus gets confused tabbing and shift-tabbing through the message detail and list view, particularly in the chat tab. The easiest way I found to put focus on the chat list is switch to another tab and then back using the CTRL+# shortcuts mentioned previously - Use CTRL+A CTRL+C to copy a message you have selected to the clipboard, which you can then paste in a text editor like Word or Note Pad for reference. This is the easiest way to read the full message when it is truncated and open any links in the message. - When you receive a call on Teams, use CTRL+shift+S to accept the audio call or CTRL+shift+A to accept the video call. - Toggle mute on and off using CTRL+shift+m. - Reference the keyboard
shortcuts and pages from Microsoft at Accessibility
support for Microsoft Teams for articles on Teams
accessibility with JAWS. The longer you use Teams, the more features you will pick up and get comfortable with. Good luck, Jeremy
