Overlapping Content Elements

Id OverlappingContentElements
Summary Visual components overlap, obscuring important information
Severity N/A
Category Visual Accessibility
Affects Resource files and Kotlin and Java files
Implementation Manual testing - overlap depends on runtime rendering and stacking order.

Symptom

Important content or controls are partially or fully covered by persistent interface elements (e.g., bottom nav bar, toolbar, floating action button).

Rationale

Overlapping UI can hide options, making them unreachable or invisible, especially for users with low vision, magnification, or motor impairments, leading to incomplete or failed tasks.
