Accessibility Demonstration (Voice View Demo)

Frank Börncke

The optional APL attribute 'accessibilityLabel' is available for a lot of APL elements. It defines a text which will be read aloud on touch only when the device has 'Voice View' mode activated within the accessibility settings. Otherwise the text is ignored.

The demonstration shows that it is not difficult to use this attribute and it will make life easier for a lot of users.

Alexa devices offer a lot of accessibility features: for those who never heard about this before I recommend the following summary which offers a good introduction:
