Browse Mode vs Focus Mode

Understand the two ways users interact with a page.

Two Ways to Interact

Desktop screen readers have two gears. Browse mode reads content, while focus mode types into it. Knowing both ends a lot of confusion. 🔁

Browse Mode Reads

In browse mode, keys like H, K, and arrows navigate the page. The reader intercepts them so you can skim headings and links.
