iOS Accessibility: make UITextField and specified subview accessible

Question

I want to make a textfield and a subview on the text field accessible by VoiceOver. If I use UIAccessibilityContainer methods, I can only make the subviews accessible. Is there some way to do this?

Answer 1

No . You must go up one level in the accessibility hierarchy. Implement the container protocol on your view's superview and return all of its descendants as children (and, thus, siblings of each other).

Answer 2

try this,

textfield.isAccessibilityElement = YES;

textfield.accessibilityElementsHidden = NO;

Leave the container methods for time being.
