Description alex.ronci 2024-01-17 22:42:42 PST

Hi all, Since iOs 17.2 all the <div> with the attribute role="text" and attr.aria-label="anytext" are not read by voiceover anymore. Example code: <div class="fontClass" id="idxxx" role="text" attr.aria-label="text to be read"></div>

Could you please help me understand how to solve this issue?

Hi there, we reverted the removal of role="text" here:

https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=267445

I'm going to close this bug as a duplicate of that one.
