Hey Everett,
Wicked feedback. Keep it coming.
Safari unfortunately seems to have no support for live regions, both
on the iPhone and on the desktop. Any of our status messages should
indeed use aria-live for the future, and I think we should be
careful about some of the timed animations we use with those messages.
In the meantime, I guess the only affordance you get with VoiceOver
that an artifact has been successfully collected is the fact that
the button's label changes to "Uncollect." I imagine, though, that
this is very noticeable?
* I figured that since Safari doesn't support aria-live on the desktop
that it likely wouldn't in the mobile browser. Yes, the Uncollect /
Collect change is minor and difficult to differentiate.
Perhaps we could provide more verbose labels for the button.
Suggestion:
"Add artifact to My Collection"
"Remove artifact from My Collection"
Also if I recall the QA test plan it said something about an visible
status update, maybe I'm making that up it was late at night. Can we
try setting the focus to that status message (if I'm not imagining it)
to see how VO responds?
Thanks,
Everett
