Removing Flutter accessibility description from decorative image
I have used a decorative image in my Flutter image using the Image
class.
When I use Android Talkback to hover over the image it says "unlabelled image", is there a way to remove this description so nothing is announced?
The Android docs have guidance on removing it for Android, how should I do this in Flutter?
Decorative images or images that don't convey meaningful information
graphically do not require content labels. In these cases, set an
android:contentDescription attribute of "@null" or an
android:importantForAccessibility attribute of "no".
