Abstract
An interactive audio validation and assistance system and methodologies utilize a user interface to receive input to fill the one or more fields to perform a request, wherein the one or more fields contain required information. Validation of the input is performed to determine whether required information is complete for the one or more input fields. In response to the validation determining that required information is incomplete, a notification is output that required information is missing or in an incorrect format for at least one of the one or more input fields, wherein the notification includes audible explanatory instructions facilitating input of missing/incorrect format information. Additionally, systems and methodologies offer auto-fill, tips, suggestions, explanations, other information and a method to replace a website'"'"'s input error notification system by the user'"'"'s browser, offering audio and or text assistance to implement more efficient completion of website forms.
