Hi there,
We have an android app that works fine when navigating with Talkback
touch gestures, i.e. , flicking left / right. But when navigated
using TAB key on bluetooth keyboard, the focus moves to different
controls but Talkback remains silent.
Is there anything extra that need to be taken care?
Best,
Ajay

Android has different ways of specifying keyboard focus order and TalkBack reading order. You will want to make sure to set both.
NextFocus... properties for keyboard
https://developer.android.com/training/keyboard-input/navigation
And AccessibilityTraversal.... properties for swipe gestures.

Thanks Jon, also would like to tell that so far this kind of issue was
not met while developing other apps...can't recollect if we did
something particular to make keyboard work, as long as we want to
alter the focus order or implement custom arrow key navigation.
Best,
Ajay
