Question

I am getting warning as \"[Accessibility] Missing contentDescription attribute on image\" for imageview. while using android lint

What does that mean?

Answer 1

Non textual widgets need a content description in some ways to describe textually the image so that screens readers to be able to describe the user interface. You can ignore the property xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
tools:ignore="contentDescription" or define the property android:contentDescription="your description"
