Hi,

Does Talkback announces the mandatory fields with required property. I am
trying to find one text field where Talkback announces it as required
field. Curious to know whether Android supports aria-required or required
properties? If so can you please share any reference where it is documented
to forward it to my dev team.

Regards,
Venkatesh

Surprisingly, required/aria-required="true" seems to be ignored by
Talkback/Chrome

Exactly. Besides that, I didn't find any text field that is announced as
required by Talkback when I tried in different Android apps.

Thanks,
