Navigation Sounds

Navigation Sounds is an NVDA screen reader add-on that provides audio feedback for navigation and keyboard typing. It allows you to hear different sounds based on the roles of the elements you interact with and customize your experience.

About

This add-on is inspired by the abandoned "objsounds" add-on created by Tyler Spivey. Since that add-on hasn't been updated for a long time, we've created this add-on to continue providing similar functionality while keeping up with the changes in the NVDA screen reader.

Features

  • Easily toggle object sounds and keyboard typing sounds on and off using the keyboard shortcut NVDA+alt+n. You can also customize these settings through the NVDA menu Preferences > Input gestures > Navigation Sounds.
  • Access a settings page where you can choose from various navigation sound packages and keyboard typing sound effects, as well as configure additional options.
  • Includes a selection of sound packages and typing keyboard sound effects, with the ability to create and add your custom packages.
  • Compatibility: Designed to work seamlessly with modern NVDA versions, starting from 2019.3.
  • Available in multiple languages, including English, Arabic, Spanish, French, Danish, Polish, and Chinese.
  • Watch a video about it on YouTube (in Arabic).

Installation

Direct Installation (NVDA Version 2023.2+)

If you have NVDA version 2023.2 or newer, you can install it directly from the Add-on store with the name "Navigation Sound Effects."

Manual Installation (For Older Versions)

  1. Download the latest release from the Releases section.
  2. Double-click the downloaded add-on file and confirm the installation by clicking "OK."
  3. NVDA will automatically restart, and you're ready to use Navigation Sounds.
