accessibilityElementsHidden does not hide elements if nested under accessible #34528
Description
Description
Take the following code:
<View accessible>
<Text accessible={false}>Hello</Text>
<Text>World</Text>
</View>Both iOS and Android screen readers read out "Hello World" due to the outer View specifying that it is accessible.
However, if we do this:
<View accessible>
<Text
accessible={false}
accessibilityElementsHidden
importantForAccessibility="no-hide-descendants"
>
Hello
</Text>
<Text>World</Text>
</View>Then Android reads out "World", while iOS still reads out "Hello World". This seems like a possible bug as the property accessibilityElementsHidden is supposed to be "similar to the Android property importantForAccessibility="no-hide-descendants"."
