About the Accessible label​

Screen readers use the value of the Accessible label as an accessible descriptor.

Using the Accessible label​

To add accessible descriptions using the Accessible labels in your app:

  1. Open your app.
  2. Select a Button or Custom HTML control. The Properties panel opens.
  3. Add accessible text to the Accessible label property.
