[iOS] VoiceOver reads the placeholder in TextInput

Description

When setting a placeholder in the TextInput field, VoiceOver reads the placeholder text. This causes problems when an accessibilityLabel is also provided.

Expected behaviour: Placeholder should not be read by a screen reader as it is just a visual component.

Steps to reproduce

Try this sample code:

import React from 'react';
import {SafeAreaView, StyleSheet, TextInput} from 'react-native';

const TextInputExample = () => {
  const [text, onChangeText] = React.useState('');

  return (
    <SafeAreaView>
      <TextInput
      placeholder="text input"
      accessibilityLabel="text input"
        style={styles.input}
        onChangeText={onChangeText}
        value={text}
      />
    </SafeAreaView>
  );
};

const styles = StyleSheet.create({
  input: {
    height: 40,
    margin: 12,
    borderWidth: 1,
    padding: 10,
  },
});

export default TextInputExample;

Screenshots and Videos

Commencez par le reproducer Snack fourni et sa configuration de TextInput, puis suivez le comportement d’accessibilité de TextInput sur iOS dans React Native. C’est terminé lorsque VoiceOver ne lit pas le placeholder lorsqu’un accessibilityLabel est fourni, tout en conservant le comportement signalé de TextInput.
