Description Bryan Garaventa 2021-08-03 17:27:40 PDT

When using VoiceOver to interact with an ARIA listbox widget that includes checkable options (role=option + aria-checked), it is impossible to determine the checked state of each option, nor is it possible to detect any changed state when an option is activated by tapping it.

Examples:

http://whatsock.com/Templates/Listboxes/Checkable/index.htm

Expected behavior: When swiping between the available options of a listbox, both the select state and the checked state (when true) should be conveyed. The same should occur when tapping on an option to change the checked state of that option.

Sincerely,
Bryan Garaventa
