Bad acessibility

By Márcio Lopes Fão (marciofao) on August 26, 2024

The plugin have great look, but really should work on acessibility. I Just tried it over NVDA and the buttons are not labeled. I was looking for a radio plugin as web radios are very popular on blind user community. unfortunately I cannot chose this one because of the lack of accessibility.

Love It, What I Was Looking For
