Element identification - Android

In Android, you should create custom Views to re-use functionality on multiple screens.

When using icons, use the search function of your IDE to check all instances. The icon should have the same accessibility label on each screen, and the functionality should also be the same.

For example, when using a cross icon for closing a screen, make sure the label is 'Close' on all screens, and check that it always closes a screen.

In Android Studio, you can use the Find Usages option to check if resources are used on multiple screens. Go to your drawable folder, right click and select the Find Usages option. You can also use the shortcut Option + F7 on Mac, or Alt + F7 on Windows.
