Insertion point announcements

By CuriousNetEntity, 28 October, 2021

Does anyone know how to turn off Voiceover announcement of the position of the insertion point. Yes, that is useful info when editing, but sometimes Voiceover says it constantly in places where it is completely useless verbosity. I certainly don't want to hear it when reading a webpage with QuickNav on. The feature seems to come and go inexplicabley.

Long-Standing Issue

This issue has been around for a while. It's not as problematic as it was when originally introduced. There's no user control for this that I'm aware of, but that would be a nice enhancement.
