I've a UITableViewCell with the accessoryType set to be UITableViewCellAccessoryDetailDisclosureButton. This displays the chevron and the info button. When i check the accessibility inspector on the simulator, this has an accessibiityHint of "More Info" is there any way to change this?

I have tried accessing it via the accessoryView property but this is nil.

(More context, my row selection cause the row to be selected, the detail disclosure triggers a segue to an edit screen. So the row accessibilityHint is along the lines of "selects x" and I'd like the info button to say "Edits x")

Any help appreciated. Thanks!

When you set the cell's accessoryType to be UITableViewCellAccessoryDetailDisclosureButton, the info icon together with the disclosure indicator is accessible with a fixed accessibilityLabel of value More info. I suspect this is not changeable.

You can either change to use UITableViewCellAccessoryDisclosureIndicator as your cell's accessoryType or use your custom view as accessoryView. Then you can set your cell's accessibilityLabel or accessibilityHint as you like.
