Description

VoiceOver takes the count of rooms with unread messages (the count in the bubble) as the count of items within the tab, which is wrong.

Research direction

Start by locating the iOS app tabs and their VoiceOver accessibility labels, then reproduce the issue with VoiceOver enabled. The fix is done when the tab announces the total number of items in the tab rather than the unread-room bubble count.
