Preconditions

  • Have the new Toolbar and Menu Redesign features enabled.
  • Turn on Talkback.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Turn the device in landscape mode.
  2. Go to the home page and tap on 3 dot menu.
  3. Observe the Talkback announcement.

Expected behavior

The Talkback should read: "More options. Button. Double tap to activate”.

Actual behavior

The Talkback reads: "Menu”.

Device information

  • Firefox version: Firefox Nightly 135, Beta 123.0b10
  • Android device model: Google Pixel 8, Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra and any device
  • Android OS version: Android 14

Additional information

The 3-dot menu is correctly announced from an opened tab, on both orientations.

In Nightly, where the features can be enabled/ disabled from Secret Settings:

  • with the Menu redesign feature disabled, the Talkback reads "Menu"
  • with the Menu redesign feature enabled, the Talkback reads "More options. Button".
    Changed were previously made in 1920037 to fixed the issue, but it was only fixed for Menu Redesign.

marking it as access-S4 issue because the current label of "Menu" is still communicating the purpose of the 3-dot control well, while breaking up the consistency for the toolbar.
