Skip content - Jetpack Compose

In Jetpack Compose, skipping content is mostly relevant to TalkBack users. TalkBack includes a local context menu which allows users to jump to the following content types:

• Headings
• Links
• Controls
• Text
  • Paragraphs
  • Lines
  • Characters
  • Words

Jumping to headings and links is used most often.

Provide appropriate accessibility markup to your content by using either semantics or other methods, depending on the situation.

// Mark headings
Text(
    text = "Heading text",
    modifier = Modifier.clearAndSetSemantics {
        heading()
    }
)

// Mark links
val textWithLink = buildAnnotatedString {
    append("Learn more about ")
    // adding clickable url
    withLink(
        LinkAnnotation.Url(
            url = "https://appt.org",
            // adding style for the url
            styles = TextLinkStyles(
                style = SpanStyle(textDecoration = TextDecoration.Underline, color = Color.Blue)
            )
        )
    ) {
        append("Appt")
    }
}
Text(textWithLink)
