If you use Microsoft CoPilot in a web browser, you may have realised that JAWS will use what is known as Application Mode.
Put simply this mode is designed so as to treat a web-based environment as a standalone application.
With CoPilot there is a lot of difficulty with this approach. Even if you disable Application Mode by pressing NumPad Plus twice quickly, there are times where if you browse CoPilot with the Virtual Cursor, JAWS automatically goes back into Application Mode even if you have not asked it to do so.
A good example of this is where CoPilot displays items in a list. Ask it to create a food recipe for you and that will clearly demonstrate it.

The next update to Leasey will resolve this problem. There is some discussion about the benefits of Leasey on this platform right now. This is just one of the advantages. Issues like this can be resolved in short order. #LeaseyLove
