A BUG report in the Amazon Kindle application
As for where to report a bug I'm sure you can look at amazon and go through their help files and it will tell you where to report it. I hadn't had a chance to check it out with another screen reader y

orc appsThe thing I hate about convenient OCR is that if you’re not using their camera you can only scan one page into a document. I usually end up using the OCR that came with my scanner. I’ve thought about breaking down and buying Abbyy Finereader.

My only excuse, and it's not much of one, is that I had been awake for 2 days and was about half asleep when I wrote that.

Need to use Narrator to get and install JAWS 2021 on a new install of Windows 10
It shouldn’t be difficult at all. It’ll just be slower. You’ll have to navigate the webpage with arrow keys. If I might make a suggestion, Why not download JAWS before you do this, stick it in a 1Driv

I want a good cloud drive to store files in.
Depends on the features you want. If you use apple products as well and want to share between your phone and computer easily try iCloud. If you have Office 365 already then why not just use 1Drive. If
