The Problem:
An Android accessibility error message is displayed indicating "No speakable text present" despite having an android:hint
attribute set. This error can occur when the hint text is not properly formatted or if there are other accessibility issues with the element.
The Solutions:
Solution 1: Ensure Content Description
The error occurs when the view lacks a descriptive text for screen readers or other accessibility tools. To resolve this, add a “content description” attribute to the view, providing a clear explanation of its purpose and functionality.
android:contentDescription="@string/view_description"
