@ariellalgilmore Re tested this on JAWS FF/Voiceover iPhone, Not fixed.

Placeholder is provided instead of a label. Place holder cannot be considered as an replacement for an Accessible Name. And also Because it is not rendered reliably across the different versions of Screen readers and Browsers. We recommend using aria-label here.
