Custom UITableViewCell accessibility

Question

How can you set the accessibility of subviews of UITableViewCells individually.
It should not be accessible as complete cell?

Answer 1

If your tableview cell consists of text only, enabling accessibility for the cell will do and it will read out the whole cell. If you have other objects and buttons, it is recommended to use a subclass of UITableViewCell and override the -accessibilityElements method to return all your accessible elements.

Some code:

#import "CustomCell.h"

@implementation CustomCell

- (void)awakeFromNib
{
    [super awakeFromNib];
    self.accessibilityElements = @[self.view1, self.label, self.imageView];
}
