Hi Gang,
Does anyone have any experience with VoiceOver/iPhone and iFrames??
I have an issue when scrubbing down the page that voiceover simple
skips-over the iframe.
No amount of aria goodness will make voiceover stop on the iframe and read
out the contents.
You can of course click the iframe to interactive with itŠ which is not
ideal.

So how can one make the iframe voiceover friendly??

I see the same thing with iOS 8. Adding a tabindex="0" did not appear to help. I'd consider this a bug.

It seems that its a combination of iOS8 and safari.
Chrome actually works correctly.

Tested on iPad Air (latest), iOS8.1, Safari and Chrome

As an aside, Safari uses iOS8's new WKWebView, while Chrome still uses
the old UIWebView. Expect future Chrome to have the same issue as Safari
once they switch.
