Android native dialog accessibility #24749

Open IeuanWalker opened 4 days ago

IeuanWalker commented 4 days ago

Description

Hi, through testing our app with the screenreader, we noticed 1 main issue with native dialogs, hoping there is a workaround or fix that can be applied.

When native dialogs are opened the user's semantic focus isn't moved to the dialogs titles.

Dialogs include -

Atm when a dialog is opened it starts to read out the title, then when the user swipes it then focuses on the title and reads it out again, would be nicer if it just focuses straight on the title.

It's not bad for accessibility/ deal breaker, would just make the experience nicer.

@rachelkang thoughts?

rachelkang commented 4 days ago

I just tested the DisplayAlert on both .NET MAUI 8.0.40 and native Android and the behavior appears to be consistent. I'm using a Google Pixel 4a, Android 13.

In both scenarios, when the DisplayAlert is opened, TalkBack reads the DisplayAlert title and then the text, and the focus is on the body of the DisplayAlert's text the entire time. It appears that this it the expected behavior on Android, which we align with.

If you find that this happens to be a bug with Android or if you believe I am missing additional context, please do share more information with us!

@rachelkang That's not the experience on my test device -

You can see in the first part of the vid both an alert and actionsheet behaviour the same, and don't focus on anything, just reads out the title, then swiping navigates to the title and it reads it out again

At the end of a vid I show a custom popup using Mopups, where I set the focus to the title, which is what I expect the dialogs to do.

My test device is -

Hmm that's certainly strange / not what I'm seeing on a blank .NET MAUI app with just a DisplayAlert. Could you please share a repro sample so the team can take a closer look and investigate further?

@rachelkang no prob, will take a look monday

@IeuanWalker can you try on Android 13 or a newer device. I wonder if there is a bug with Samsung OS or the older Android device.
