You mention about them having other accessibility things than just Voiceover to
deal with. I’m curious if anyone on this list happens to therefore use Zoom
either on OSX, or on I O S. If so, I don’t have quite enough sight to use it
on either, but I’m wondering in general how well it works, an

Mary’s correct. Just because they brand them as the Google Nexus, doesn’t mean
Google makes them. They’re made by HTC, Asus, etc.

It’s true: Google don’t even make the effort on Android. They make a much more
concerted effort on ChromeOS, though, where (surprise!) the platform is used
much more heavily in the educational environments for which a mandate of

than the button labels, but I’ll give VLC another shot and see how it goes.
On the other hand, VirtualBox still doesn’t work. I’ve since moved to Fusion,

To perform a standard mouse-click with VoiceOver enabled, use key-combo

I suggest that you first press both the Shift and VO-key, then tap the space
