Forcing Focus on Widget When Using Talkback / VoiceOver

[Matthew Jones]

I'm trying to improve the accessibility of my app right now by testing it with Talkback / Voiceover.

My issue is that I have a widget that sits in a stack and takes over the whole screen. It's controlled by a streambuilder and is activated when a user taps a particular button.

Here's the problem, when that new widget appears at the top of the stack, Talkback / Voiceover stays focused on the widgets underneath.

How can I force Talkback / Voiceover to focus on the new widget at the top of the stack?

Thanks!

Hey Matthew, from this SO post I believe this is not possible in Flutter, even though there's an API for that in Android. But, hopefully you can use a BlockSemantics to get the focus to the topmost widget on your screen, you only have to wrap it in a BlockSemantics widget. Hope this can be helpful
