Issue number: resolves internal
What is the current behavior?
When using
ion-inputwith a label on Android, TalkBack treats the visual label text as a separate focusable element. This causes the initial focus to land on the label instead of the input field, creating a confusing experience for screen reader users.What is the new behavior?
The label text wrapper is now hidden from the accessibility tree via
aria-hidden="true", while the native input maintains proper labeling througharia-labelledby. This ensures Android TalkBack focuses directly on the input field while still announcing the label correctly.Does this introduce a breaking change?
