  • This is not a v0.x issue.
  • I have searched the issues of this repository and believe that this is not a duplicate.

Expected Behavior 🤔

When hovering over an IconButton I should see an aria-label

Current Behavior 😯

No aria-label is shown

Steps to Reproduce 🕹

This bug is present in the material-ui docs. Go to the buttons demo hover over the trash icon and note that no label is shown. I've attached a video (gif format) of this behavior for convenience.

How did you come to that conclusion? Was this the case in a previous version?

aria-label is usually used for assistive technology. Maybe you meant title?

But is there a way to add an aria-label to an IconButton?

@eps1lon Also interested in hearing about how to add assistive technology on MUI components without breaking my TypeScript code.
