new feature that other screenreaders have #129

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
Good morning, this has probly been brought up already not sure, I am asking for 
a feature that other screen readers have on some other platforms to label 
unlabeled buttons.  This would help me, I can think of a place on the Jango 
radeo app that could use a feature like this for the blind.  So when you can, 
please add that soon.  Outside of that your team does a alsome  job.

TalkBack should not infer meanings or apply rules to specific applications.  It 
is the application developer's job to properly label controls.

In an ideal world, every developer would do that. However, this is not 
the case, and as much as I agree with your responce, this would still 
make things considerably easier if this feature were implemented. Not 
all developers are willing to put in the time required.

I can say using the jango app, having the ability to label buttons not
properly label would make it totally accessible.
