Impact
People using TalkBack with blindness or low-vision are most impacted. Text elements should be focusable so a screen reader can relay information to the end-user.
Confirmation
- Turn on TalkBack
- Attempt to focus the text element
- One of the following will occur:
- Inaccessible: Text element will not be focusable.
- Accessible: Text element is focused by TalkBack.
How to Fix
Avoid setting the importantForAccessibility property on text views no. Views that people can access without assistive technology should be available for those using assistive technology.
