Description
Checks
- I have read the FAQ section, searched the open issues, and still think this is a new bug.
Describe the bug you encountered:
The password text field is missing from the swipe order for TalkBack users.
Steps to reproduce:
- Open Keepass2Android, with the TalkBack accessibility service running.
- Select a database to open, mine's coming from dropbox, protected by a master key only.
- Swipe around and try to access the password text field.
Describe what you expected to happen:
Expected behavior:
I'd expect the text field to be right after the password label in the swipe order and right before the toggle password button, but it's just not there. My swipes go directly from the label to the button, and it's impossible to type my password accessibly.
What version of Keepass2Android are you using?
1.12R5
Which version of Android are you on?
15

Research direction
Start by reproducing the database-opening flow in Keepass2Android 1.12R5 on Android 15 with TalkBack enabled, then inspect the password text field and its surrounding password label and toggle button. Done means the field appears in swipe order after the label and before the toggle, and can be reached and edited accessibly.
