We've gotten a couple reports of problems with the new app from blind users
reliant on the VoiceOver screen reader feature on iOS. Some of these should be
easy to address, others we might have to research.
* many of the buttons don't get read out at all, probably because of the way
we're using icon characters. There should be an accessibility field on
UILabel/PaddedLabel that we can use for this. Might also need to make sure
proper accessibility role is set so it's clear the active ones are buttons and
not just labels.
* links in content frequently have redundant text in the titles, reading out
"Wikipedia (Wikipedia)" or such. We should ensure these are suppressed when
they're the same as the link text.
