Description

When first tabbing into the search filters, a screen reader user will hear "Use my location". However, with the addition of the visual cues, it is not immediately apparent what the purpose of this button is - what is the user using their location for? Providing additional context through aria-describedby and pointing to the City, State, Postal Code field will make it clearer without the need of navigating around the button itself for more context.

Acceptance Criteria

  • Screen reader announces "Use my location City, state or zip code"
  • Accessibility review
