Hello All, I hope you will join me in sending the following bug report to Apple, making changes where you see fit.
Thank you, Mark iOS 13.x Bug Report: Cannot Dismiss Share Name and Photo Prompt in Messages via VoiceOver With VoiceOver enabled, the user cannot dismiss the "Share Name and Photo" prompt that appears in the iOS 13.x Messages app. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Make certain that VoiceOver is enabled. 2. When setting up iOS 13.x for the first time, elect not to enable the sharing of name and photo in Messages. 3. Open the Messages app. 4. At some point, most likely when you receive an iMessage from a contact, you will be prompted to share your name and photo. You are given two options although the second option is not obvious to the VoiceOver user. The first option is to enable the sharing option. This prompt is located near the top of the display/beginning of a thread. See attached screen shot for example. 5. While a sighted, non-VoiceOver user can easily see that there is an "X" located near the prompt, allowing the user to permanently dismiss the prompt, VoiceOver does not speak this option. 6. Assuming that the VoiceOver user does not wish to share name and photo, he/she can single-finger swipe up on the display, repeatedly, until VoiceOver says, "Dismiss." However, this option does not work. Selecting the "dismiss" option has absolutely no effect on the actual prompt, itself as it continues to be displayed. It should be noted that having the prompt continuing to be displayed does, in fact, impact the functionality of the Messages app for the VoiceOver user. At present, the only workaround is to disable VoiceOver and have a sighted person tap the "X", permanently dismissing the prompt. I fervently request that this bug be resolved as soon as possible.
