That sounds like a keyboard trap to me. If you are using the app with a Bluetooth keyboard, it will not be possible to navigate away from the button.

Subject: [WebAIM] Mobile: It's Not No Keyboard Trap, But What Is It?

Hi,
I have an IOS app. When VoiceOver lands on a button in the upper left corner of the screen, I can't swipe away from it, but I can drag my finger on the screen and get out that way. What success criterion does this violate, and what causes the problem? I do not know if this is a native app because I do not have the tools to tell me what technology the makers used.

Thanks.

Jim
