Hi all,
I mostly have been using Pages on my Mac but would like to be able to use Word too. I know you can convert files between the two, but would honestly like to avoid the hassle if possible.
I don't use VoiceOver for context, just magnification. However, I do use Typing Feedback, which works great across all of macOS other than Word. Any idea if this is fixable or whether it is a known issue? It feels like such a minor thing that I don't want it to be the reason I have to keep converting between Pages and Word but I also find typing feedback really helpful.

Typing feedback works for me
I'm not sure what's going on for you, but I have VoiceOver typing feedback set up to echo each character. I opened MS Word, pressed Command+N for a new document, and started typing. When I did, I heard VoiceOver read each character, just as I would expect.
Works here too
Make sure you have the latest update of the MS Office. I am not entirely sure, but some have reported that there is difference in accessibility between the traditional office suite and the 365.

He specifically mentioned not using voiceover guys :)
I in fact tried system spoken feedback alongside VO, so I could actually believe this bug. I'll try.
