| BoinIT Viewer [Korean] Sens Reader Chrome Windows | PASS | MathML-type formulras are successfully output to the EPUB Viewer |
| BoinIT Viewer [Korean] Chrome Windows | PASS | MathML-type formulras are successfully output to the EPUB Viewer |
| Books Voiceover iOS | FAIL | Voiceover reads alt text, also the MathML but it cannot navigate inside the equation. |
| Bookshare Reader NVDA Chrome Windows | PASS | USING MathCAT I could explore the math expression just fine. |
| Bookshelf Voiceover iOS | PASS | |
| Bookshelf NVDA Chrome Windows | PASS | I am using MathCAT add-in for NVDA. The math is read perfectly. I can also copy the math to the clipboard and paste into Word. |
| Bookshelf TalkBack Android | PASS | Works as expected. |
| Colibrio Reader TalkBack Android | FAIL | The screen reader is not reading the fraction bar and subscript of X and Y correctly; it says them as "X2" and "Y2" without explaining that X and Y has a subscript 2. |
| Colibrio Reader TalkBack Android | PASS | MathML is explorable using the TalkBack. however TalkBack does not announce the element as being MathML and do not offer any special features for math. |
| Colibrio Reader NVDA Chrome Windows | PASS | |
| EBSCO Reader NVDA Chrome Windows | FAIL | The screen reader is silent when navigating to the equations. All that the screen reader can see are white space, like when you press the space bar. The first equation has one white space character, while the second has two white space characters. |
| EBSCO Reader Jaws Chrome Windows | PASS | Works as expected. |
| EBSCO Reader NVDA Edge Windows | FAIL | The screen reader stays silent when navigating to the lines featuring math equations. Exploring these lines the screen reader only registers white space characters. There is one white space character for the block test, and two for the in-line test. |
| EasyReader Windows | PASS | The equation is read properly. I can press Enter on it to go into the fine navagation mode and read each part of the equation with its numerator/fraction information. |
| EasyReader Voiceover iOS | PASS | Math reading works fine, but when double-tapping, a new screen appears that isn't accessible. It only reads 'X' and 'Y,' skipping math symbols like '=', '(', ')', and '-'. |
| EasyReader Jaws Windows 11 | FAIL | Automatic reading handles MathML correctly, but when using the up and down arrow keys, it says 'Math equation not supported.' |
| EasyReader TalkBack Android | FAIL | Talkback reads each character inside the equation without any prefix/semantics. Automatic reading is correctly reading the equation. |
| Kindle TalkBack Android | FAIL | The screen reader says 'Math alt not found' when the focus comes to it. |
| Kindle Voiceover iOS | PASS | Improvement required. Continuous VoiceOver reading doesn't read the MathML and says 'no alt found for math.' However, using swipe gestures, the focus moves to the math block and reads the equation correctly. On tapping the queation, it cna be opended in the Math viewer where navigation inside the equation is working. |
| Kindle NVDA Windows | FAIL | Math content is not read at all |
| Kobo Jaws Chrome Windows | FAIL | When focus lands on the math equation, the screen reader does not pronounce anything. |
| Kobo Voiceover iOS | PASS | When the focus lands on the MathML equation, it reads the equation correctly. However, when double-tapping on it, a new pop-up appears with the same equation in a larger font, but that pop-up is not accessible. VoiceOver only pronounces 'X' and 'Y,' completely ignoring the math symbols and parentheses. |
| Kobo TalkBack Android | FAIL | The screen reader does not announce the subtraction and the relationship of X and Y to the numbers. |
| Lithium: EPUB Reader 0.24.5.1 TalkBack Android | FAIL | TalkBack focus skips block math completely and does not recognize subscript numbers in inline math. |
| Play Books Voiceover iOS | FAIL | the image has alt text however, After double-tapping on 'Match Equation,' a large popup appears on the page with the same equation. While navigating through it, the focus only moves to 'Y' and 'X'. |
| Play Books TalkBack Android | FAIL | Talkback reads and can navigate to characters inside the equation. But the semantics such as numerator etc. is not read out. |
| RedShelf NVDA Chrome Windows | PASS | |
| RedShelf TalkBack Android | PASS | |
| Speech Central AI Voice Reader 13.6.0 TalkBack Android | FAIL | The math equation appears in line, and the mathematical signs such as '-', '(', ')', and subscript numbers are not displayed. |
| Thorium 3 Jaws Windows | PASS | Pressing enter on the math takes you into math reading mode. |
| Thorium 3 Voiceover macOS | FAIL | This worked as expected and did not read the mathml alttext by default. However, Read All skips over the mathML. |
| Thorium Reader 2 Voiceover macOS | FAIL | Cursor down line by line will speak the block and inline math correctly, however if you tell Voice Over to continuous read it skips over all MathML. |
| Thorium Reader 3 NVDA Windows | PASS | Thorium is not consistently displaying the screens that contain Math. NVDA reads Math with MathCat add-on |
| Thorium Reader 3 Jaws Chrome Windows | PASS | Jaws reads the Math properly. ON pressing Enter key, the equation appears in the Math viewer and can be navigated with keyboard. However, there is some inconsistency in display of the text from this heading till end of book when Jaws is active. |

| Vanilla Reader NVDA Chrome Windows | PASS | The reader is reading the math equation twice. The first time it reads correctly, but the second time it does not read the fraction bar and subscript of X and Y correctly; it says them as "X2" and "Y2" without explaining that X and Y have a subscript 2. |
