Ranger — Accessibility Companion

About

Websites are a mess for screen readers. Ranger rides along on every page, narrates what just happened, and yanks you out of the dead-ends the web sends you into.

Free. Works with NVDA, JAWS, VoiceOver.

HOW IT WORKS

Ranger sits next to your screen reader and watches every page along with you. It doesn't replace your screen reader. It backs it up.

Narrates what just happened. When the page does something, a menu opens, an alert appears, content shifts, Ranger tells you, in plain language, what changed. No more wondering whether the click did anything.

Rescues you from dead-ends. Stuck in a modal with no escape? Form keeps rejecting you with no error? Hit the shortcut and Ranger reads the situation and walks you to the next step.

Knows the secret tunnels. Bad markup, missing labels, broken keyboard order. Ranger sees through all of it. When the official path is broken, it finds the back door.

Works on every page. No site has to add support. Ranger works on whatever's in front of you, whether the site bothered to build for screen readers or not.

GET RANGER

One click and Ranger rides along on every page you open. No accounts, no setup.

PRIVACY

Ranger only sends data about the element you're focused on. It doesn't crawl pages, doesn't track browsing history, doesn't send form values, and doesn't run when the side panel is closed unless you opt in. Full policy: https://coveredbridge.live/privacy
