Screen Title

Any screen within a navigation flow should have a title assigned to be announced by TalkBack.

Impact

People using TalkBack are most affected as screens without a title will not be announced, potentially leaving your audience a bit lost in the flow.

Confirmation

1. Turn on TalkBack
2. Open the application
3. One of the following will happen:
   • Inaccessible: TalkBack announces only the application name.
   • Accessible: TalkBack announces the screen's title instead of the application name.

How to Fix

Native Android

Set the screen's title within the Activity.

Activity.this.setTitle(...);

React Native

Ensure each Stack.Screen component has a descriptive name. If needed, add options={{title: 'New Screen Title'}} to define a better screen title.

<Stack.Screen
    name="ScreenTitleExample"
    component={ScreenTitleExample}
    options={{title: 'Screen Title'}}
/>
