In the attached HTML page, press control+option+shift+down to focus the HTML content area, and then press the down arrow to navigate through the elements. VoiceOver reading both the normal h1 element and the p element marked with aria-hidden="true". On iOS (7.1.2 and 8.0 beta 5), using horizontal swipes to move from element to element reads the h1, but skips the p with aria-hidden="true". I believe this is the intended behavior. 1030025 1 webkit-bug-importer 2014-08-19 08:06:13 -0700 <rdar://problem/18062422> 1034122 2 cfleizach 2014-09-09 09:26:33 -0700 I am on the latest developer seed of Yosemite, and I do not see this behavior. VoiceOver is not able to reach this element and if I use accessibility inspector, I only see one child of the Web area (the heading) Maybe this resolved itself in the meantime? 236813 2014-08-19 08:05:52 -0700 2014-08-19 08:05:52 -0700 Example page with aria-hidden aria-hidden.html text/html 153 bugzilla PCFET0NUWVBFIGh0bWw+Cgo8aHRtbD4KCjxoZWFkPgogIAo8L2hlYWQ+Cgo8Ym9keT4KCiAgPGgx PlRlc3QgaGVhZGluZzwvaDE+CgogIDxwIGFyaWEtaGlkZGVuPSJ0cnVlIj5Wb2ljZU92ZXIgc2hv dWxkIG5vdCBzZWUgdGhpczwvcD4KCjwvYm9keT4KCjwvaHRtbD4K
