I'm currently working on providing accessibility to an app and I wanted to know if there's a way to change the description of a specific textField when you're marking/selecting it.
Say you have myNumericInput: UITextField!
which you set to NumberPad
. When voice over is activated and you tap on it, it will select it and say "text field". Is there a way to override this and have it say, for example, "numeric field"?
I know this is just the voice over app describing the object itself (textField), but maybe the description is confusing for the user, and I wanted to check if this can be better specified somehow.
You could set the value of
accessibilityHint
to your text field to better describe what it does.Documentation
