Re: IOS Accessibility Properties Questions

I think you can use hint property in native app. For common design on the
web, the hint is usually coming from the accessible description which I
think most people are using aria-describedby and some uses title. For
native app, I think you can try to use Accessibility Inspector which is
part of X-Code to check the accessibility state, role, name and description
(correct me if I'm missing anything).
