Reheating the iOS Accessibility topic.
By default, neither `OutlinedTextField` nor `TextField` sets up additional accessibility info such as label or any additional info like placeholder value or supportingText, on iOS. Meanwhile on Android these are handled well.

Is there something I miss, or is it intentionally so minimally supported on other platforms?

Source:

```var textFieldValue by remember { mutableStateOf(TextFieldValue()) }

OutlinedTextField(
    modifier = Modifier.fillMaxWidth()
        .padding(vertical = 16.dp)
        .semantics {
            contentType = ContentType.EmailAddress
        },
    value = textFieldValue,
    onValueChange = { newValue -&gt; textFieldValue = newValue },
    label = { Text("Email") },
    supportingText = { Text("Enter a valid email address") },
    placeholder = { Text("<mailto:example@example.com|example@example.com>") }
)```

What I have in mind is setting up semantics manually based on what LabelText, SupportingText, PlaceholderText is displayed, but that will override the defaults that are working correctly on Android already :confused:

iOS and Android have different patterns of using text fields. I would recommend to check how it's implemented in native iOS apps first. Also you can use expect/actual to split the behavior between these platforms.
In any case, if you think that it behaves incorrectly, feel free to file an issue <https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/newIssue?project=CMP|in our YouTrack>.

This is how a very simple swiftUI based TextField is read by VoiceOver.

```@State private var email: String = ""

TextField("Email", text: $email)
    .textFieldStyle(RoundedBorderTextFieldStyle())
    .keyboardType(.emailAddress)
    .autocapitalization(.none)
    .disableAutocorrection(true)```
