ComposeA11yScanner v2.1.0 — Text Contrast Scanning and Reliability Improvements

ComposeA11yScanner 2.1.0

This release introduces rendered text-contrast analysis and improves scanning reliability across Compose-only and Fragment-based applications.

Highlights

• Added TextContrastRule with screenshot-based analysis of rendered text and background colors.
• Added support for detecting insufficient text contrast that cannot be determined from the Compose semantics tree alone.

Scanning reliability

• Improved Compose host selection, including applications with nested ComposeView instances.
• Improved scanning across Fragment and Compose screen transitions.
• Fixed stale results appearing after navigation.
• Improved screen identity and readiness detection.
• Fixed scans occasionally returning 100% before the active screen was ready.

Accuracy improvements

• Reduced false-positive text-contrast warnings for rich text and code blocks.
• Fixed duplicate-description detection for repeated actions inside collections.
• Reduced duplicate-description false positives caused by parent/child semantics copies.
• Fixed missing-content-description warnings for zero-sized and off-screen nodes.
• Improved focus-order handling for:
  • Zero-sized nodes
  • Lazy and reverse layouts
  • Elements belonging to different semantic containers
• Reduced false-positive touch-target-overlap warnings.

Compatibility

• No breaking public API changes.
• Existing integrations remain source-compatible with version 2.0.0.
• Because TextContrastRule is enabled, applications may receive new accessibility warnings that previous versions could not detect.
