Hi there, we stumbled upon various issues regarding a11y. Could you please navigate these?

  1. Category tabs:
  • currently possible to navigate only via Tab key, not arrows.
  • not properly announced for screen readers, e.g.: 'Smileys and People, selected, tab, 1 of 8' -> incorrect label name
  1. Skin Tone selection:
  • not announcing skin tone selected, only role are announced as 'Choose skin tone, button'
  • after choosing the skin tone, focus disappears
  1. Emoji navigation:
  • from Search input is possible to navigate only via arrows not Tab key
  1. Emoji picker cannot be dismissed by Esc key - need to press few times.

First two already carry this fix, if you'd approve we could merge.

We had a WCAG audit recently and found those issues are also impacting us.
