ARIA Notify
Fire a one-shot announcement straight at the platform accessibility queue. Type a message, pick priority and interrupt, and watch the API actually fire.
Heads up
The ariaNotify API ships in Chrome 141. If your build does not expose it, enable
chrome://flags/#enable-experimental-web-platform-features. Turn on a screen reader (VoiceOver / NVDA / TalkBack) to actually hear the announcement — the call always fires, but only AT software speaks the result.
checking support…
the call
document.body.ariaNotify(message, {
priority: "auto", // "auto" | "important" | "none"
interrupt: false, // true cuts ahead of queued items
});
