| 20 | +**Issue #30897**: VoiceOver users unable to access expanded list of Picker combo box on MacCatalyst |
| 21 | +- When using VoiceOver and pressing Control+Option+Space to expand Picker, focus doesn't shift to expanded list |
| 22 | +- User cannot interact with picker items using VoiceOver |
| 23 | +- Previous implementation used `EditingDidEnd` event which broke VoiceOver accessibility |
| 24 | + |
| 25 | +**Issue #30891**: Task and Project controls (Pickers) not accessible with keyboard on MacCatalyst |
| 26 | +- Keyboard-only users cannot access Picker controls with TAB key |
| 27 | +- MacCatalyst lacked `Unfocus` command handler preventing programmatic dismissal |
| 28 | +- Picker list items not accessible via keyboard navigation |
| 29 | + |
| 30 | +**Steps to Reproduce (#30897):** |
| 31 | +1. Turn on VoiceOver |
| 32 | +2. Install and open Developer Balance app |
| 33 | +3. Press Control+Option+Right arrow to navigate to Project combo box (Picker) |
| 34 | +4. Press Control+Option+Space to expand |
| 35 | +5. **Issue**: Unable to access expanded list |
| 36 | + |
| 37 | +**Steps to Reproduce (#30891):** |
| 38 | +1. Open Developer Balance app |
| 39 | +2. TAB till Add task button and press ENTER |
| 40 | +3. TAB till Task and Project controls (Pickers) |
| 41 | +4. **Issue**: Controls not accessible with keyboard |
| 42 | + |
| 43 | +**Platforms Affected:** |
| 44 | +- [x] MacCatalyst (primary) |
| 45 | +- [x] iOS (shares handler code, no behavior changes expected) |
| 46 | +- [ ] Android |
| 47 | +- [ ] Windows |
| 48 | + |
| 49 | +**Regression**: No - these are existing accessibility bugs on MacCatalyst |

| 64 | + - Removed problematic `EditingDidEnd` event handler (broke VoiceOver) (original PR) |
| 65 | + - Implemented `MapUnfocus` method for programmatic dismissal (original PR) |
| 66 | + - **Fixed MapUnfocus bug** - removed incorrect `PresentedViewController` check (line 165) (applied fix) |
| 67 | + - **Made MapUnfocus async void** and added await (applied fix) |
| 68 | + |
| 69 | +- `PickerHandler.cs`: Command mapper registration |
| 70 | + - Registered `Unfocus` command for MacCatalyst in CommandMapper |
| 71 | + |

| 79 | + |
| 80 | +**Key Comments**: |
| 81 | + |
| 82 | +1. **Critical Bug Report** (sheiksyedm - reviewer): |
| 83 | + - "Issue2339 test scenario fails after this changes" |
| 84 | + - **Logic bug on line 165** in `MapUnfocus` implementation |
| 85 | + - Specific failure: When clicking `btnFocusThenUnFocus` (Focus → wait 2s → Unfocus): |
| 86 | + - ✅ picker.Focus() opens the dialog |
| 87 | + - ⏱️ Waits 2 seconds (dialog stays open) |
| 88 | + - ❌ picker.Unfocus() calls MapUnfocus → **condition fails** → dialog stays open |
| 89 | + - 🖱️ Only when clicking "Done" does dialog close (via Done button action) |
| 90 | + - **Root cause**: Line 165 condition check is preventing Unfocus from working |
| 91 | + |
| 92 | +2. **Author Response** (kubaflo): |
| 93 | + - Acknowledged the bug: "sure! Thanks for letting me know!" |
| 94 | + |
| 95 | +3. **Reviewer Feedback (Copilot Bot)**: |
| 96 | + - **Issue 1**: Line 167 - `DismissViewControllerAsync` called without await → **Fixed** |
| 97 | + - **Issue 2**: Line 14 - `pickerController` field not cleaned up in DisconnectHandler → To address |
| 98 | + - **Issue 3**: Line 14 - Field naming convention (should use `_pickerController`) → To address |
| 99 | + |
| 100 | +**Critical Issue Fixed**: |
| 101 | +- ✅ Line 165: Removed incorrect `PresentedViewController is not null` check |
| 102 | +- ✅ Line 161: Made MapUnfocus async void |
| 103 | +- ✅ Line 167: Added await to DismissViewControllerAsync |
