Description

Works fine for iPhone4s (v5.1) and iPod touch3 (iOS6.1.3) 1. Create application with talk Back/Voice Over enabled using app.js attached. 2. On events window double click on button ""Make announcement". Actual: Clicking "Make announcement" speaks "make announcement" instead of "Please stand by for an urgent message from the Department of Home Land Security." Expected: " Please stand by for an urgent message from the Department of Home Land Security." must be spoken

This is not our issue but apple having an issue with posting notifications when an accessibility feature is in progress. If I modify the code to add a small delay before posting the notification, it works fine.

   
   announceButton.addEventListener("click", function() {
       setTimeout(function(){
           Ti.App.fireSystemEvent(Ti.App.EVENT_ACCESSIBILITY_ANNOUNCEMENT,
                              "Please stand by for an urgent message from the Department of Home Land Security.");
       },500);
   });
