Duplicate Accessibility Label on Screen

Note:
  • Rule Category : Accessibility Labels
  • WCAG Guidelines : 2.1 - 4.1.2 (A)
  • Rule Severity : Serious
  • Supported Platforms : Android, iOS

Description

Ensure that each element within a collection or on a page has a unique accessibility label. Unique labels allow accessibility services to accurately reference and announce each on-screen element individually.

How to fix

  • Andriod : contentDescription property is same for more than one element on the screen. When the accessible name is not unique, Screen Reader users will find it difficult to differentiate between the controls and their purpose.

  • iOS : accessibilityLabel property is same for more than one element on the screen. When the accessible name is not unique, Screen Reader users will find it difficult to differentiate between the controls and their purpose.
