    <thetext>When using voiceover on iOS, links in the browser do not receive focus. I believe this is an incorrect pattern and has led to issues that only occur on iOS. I would expect the swipe gesture on iOS with VO active to move browser focus as well to ensure a consistent experience across mobile and desktop devices using webkit browsers.

- VO focus moves between heading elements, ordered list markers, links and buttons
- Browser focus moves only when VO is on a button element

Video 2: Voiceover on macOS

- Browser focus moves freely between links and buttons, pulling VO focus with it
- Using the VO rotor to jump between links does not pull browser focus
- Using the VO rotor to jump between form elements (buttons) does not pull browser focus
