I'm trying to validate my app's handling of voiceover accessibility when using VoiceOver hotspots. What I'm doing: Set a hotspot Validate hotspot references correct control within the hotspot chooser set another hotspot Validate hotspot references both correct controls within the hotspot chooser Try to use one of the hotspots Result: The hotspot has changed to some other control in the app (usually one of the window buttoms (close, minimze, full screen) but at other times are one of the menus or a completely different control in the window. My question is how I can debug what might be going on in the app when the hotspots are resolved and invoked. I'm assuming I have some accessibility property set improperly for these controls that are causing incorrect resolution of the hotspots.

I have a stackview which have 2 labels class TextView: UIView { @IBOutlet private weak var stackView: UIStackView! { didSet { stackView.isAccessibilityElement = true stackView.accessibilityLabel = label1.text + label2.text } } @IBOutlet private weak var label1: UILabel! { didSet { label1.accessibilityIdentifier = "label1" } } @IBOutlet private weak var: UILabel!{ didSet { label2.accessibilityIdentifier = "label2" } } } My goal here is to have a combines accessibility label for the stackview and yet able to access the accessibilityIdentifier of child elements for automation.

But I can only accessibility elements in Accessibility Inspector but can't see Automation Elements self.view.accessibilityElements = [loginButton as Any, registerButton as Any, closeButton as Any] self.view.automationElements = [claimLabel as Any, loginButton as Any, registerButton as Any, intoductionImage as Any, closeButton as Any])

I have two views in a container view as below @IBOutlet weak var dataDisclosureView: UIStackView! // Main ContainerView @IBOutlet private weak var titleLabel: UILabel! { didSet { titleLabel.text = "Hello" } } @IBOutlet private weak var descriptionLabel: UILabel! { didSet { descriptionLabel.text = "World" } } @IBOutlet weak var descriptionView: UIStackView! { // sub container view containing titleLabel and descriptionLabel didSet { descriptionView.isAccessibilityElement = true descriptionView.accessibilityLabel = "Hello" descriptionView.accessibilityIdentifier = "test_hello" } } @IBOutlet private weak var requestButton: UIButton! { didSet { requestButton.isAccessibilityElement = true requestButton.accessibilityLabel = "Request Button" requestButton.accessibilityIdentifier = "test_button" } } override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() dataDisclosureView.isAccessibilityElement = false dataDisclosureView.accessibilityElements = [ descriptionView ?? "" ] if #available(iOS 17.0, *) { dataDisclosureView.automationElements = [ descriptionView ?? "", requestButton ?? ""] } else { // Fallback on earlier versions } let requestButtonAction = UIAccessibilityCustomAction(name: "start", target: self, selector: #selector( request)) dataDisclosureView.accessibilityCustomActions = [ requestButtonAction ] } Mx issue is I want AccessibilityIdentifers for descriptionLabel,titleLabel,requestButton and hintLabel(For Automation) and accessibility labels for descriptionView and requestButton(VoiceOver Accessibility). But I am unable to see accessibilityIdentifier for Button, TitleLabel and descriptionLabel in AccessibilityInspector. what am I doing wrong here?

I have an image and label inside UIStackView which are inside a viewcontroller. I want to make my UIView accessible. So I wrote below code: var image: UIImage! var myView: UIStackView! var label : UILabel! myView.isAccessibilityElement = true myView.accessibilityLabel = "Hello" myView.accessiblityIdentifier = "test_view" image.accessiblityIdentifier = "test_image" label.accessibilityIdentifier = "test_label" All are UIKit Elements. How to expose mvView to accessibility and only children to automation I tried below two ways, none of them worked: self.view.accessibilityElements = [myView] myView.accessibilityElements = [] from apple documentation : If the object is a view and it’s an accessibility element, and accessibilityElements is empty, the system assigns the list of subviews that have an accessibilityIdentifier to automationElements. myView.automationElements = [myView,image,label] from apple documentation : In some cases, you might want to expose elements for automation but not for accessibility, or vice versa. In a view containing an image with a label under it, for example, you might choose to expose only the label for accessibility. For automation, however, you might include both the image and the label in a test to confirm the both objects exist. In this case, add both the image and the label to automationElements. I am really going crazy with this since many days. Help is very much appreciated.

Hi everyone, I wanted to share my thoughts on the recent announcement regarding the Image Playground waitlist. I understand that there has been an increase in wait times, but I find it interesting that a friend of mine signed up yesterday and already gained access. I’ve seen in various places that the system operates on a first-come, first-served basis. I’ve been on the waitlist since day one, so I’m starting to wonder if this is truly the case. If anyone has more insights on this or has had a similar experience, I’d love to hear your thoughts! Thanks!

it’s been exactly 7 days after I request early access to image playground. Nothing happening yet still not activated even though I have the latest iOS 18.2 beta installed.

Just updated my iPhone 16 pro max to the iOS 18.1 however the record icon doesn’t show on my screen while am having a phone call like other devices

I get no sound at all. Not music, no texts, no phone. If I unplug and try to plug back in, the phone is not recognized at all

VoiceOver does not support the plist property CFBundleSpokenName. This is wrong and should be fixed. Ultimately the issue I am dealing with is that our app name is UWCU, and instead of VoiceOver pronouncing each letter, it tries to read this as a word and horribly butchers our organization's/app's name. Alternatives such as using U.W.C.U. and U W C U are not acceptable. @Apple, I know you're first response is going to be "no, it is working perfectly," but quite frankly you are wrong. I know you feel strongly about this, given your response in posts like this: https://forums.developer.apple.com/forums/thread/734545?answerId=760084022 HOWEVER, with iOS 18, your argument for "VoiceOver should read what's on the screen" doesn't hold water anymore. With iOS 18, you Apple have added a new feature that lets users customize their home screens and completely remove the name of apps. Here's your own guide: https://support.apple.com/guide/iphone/customize-apps-and-widgets-on-the-home-screen-iph385473442/ios Quoted from your guide: Make the icons bigger: Tap Large. (In large size, the names of the apps disappear.) With large icons + VoiceOver turned on, VoiceOver still reads the app name even though it has disappeared from the screen. So, your own argument "VoiceOver should read the text as it appears on the screen" is invalid, because there is NO text on the screen. If you can't tell, I'm pretty peeved about all this. There's a reason why screen readers support aria attributes to help deliver the right accessible experience. It's a simple ask for VoiceOver to do the same thing.

It’s been almost a week since I would get into my image playground I have the iphone16 pro max

Now it's issue with port, charger, battery charge.

Have anyone seen a orange microphone logo open on the dynamic island, and after you click on it opens a accessibility app with the black screen?
