Hey Margo!
For 1, I think, isViewModal applied on a custom popover view should do the trick. For 2, they will can try the clickable text with the link trait. This will expose it as links in the rotor.

They simply are views that get inserted into the other view hierarchy and can be swiped to, and swiped out of into surrounding elements. What's the best way to make these accessible?

I've tried to navigate to this text with the VoiceOver rotor commands (this works), but triple-tapping the screen to simulate a non-VoiceOver double-tap does not work. Only a double-tap is recognized, so VoiceOver just again focuses the text field, which already has focus anyway.

What could be done to make this accessible so VoiceOver users can either triple-tap correctly, or have some other means of accessing the info behind these special text sections?
