Set the accessibility attributes on UIBarButtonItem

Question

I have several UIBarButtonItem objects in Interface Builder, and I cannot find any option to set the accessibility label or hint for these buttons.

How can I set these attributes?

Answer 1

You can use the "User defined runtime attributes" and specify your accessibility information there:

Answer 2

It is not actually enough to just set the accessibilityLabel User Defined Runtime Attribute in Interface Builder. You also have to set isAccessibilityElement to true. This keeps all of the accessibility information within Interface Builder.
