Description

On Android any element in a CollectionView is read as clickable by the Android TalkBack screen reader.
This is the case even non clickable elements such as plain Labels.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create a CollectionView with a Label in its DataTemplate:

<CollectionView ItemsSource="{Binding Data}" SelectionMode="None">
    <CollectionView.ItemTemplate>
        <DataTemplate>
            <Label Text="{Binding IndexNr}"></Label>
        </DataTemplate>
    </CollectionView.ItemTemplate>
</CollectionView>

2. Run the app on an android device with TalkBack enabled
3. Navigate through the items with the screen reader

Result: "Double tap to activate" is announced on the labels of the collection view

Additional Infos:

• Inspecting the accessibility tree of the app shows that every element of the CollectionView is wrapped in a ViewGroup with the "click" action and "clickable" property assigned to it:
  
• On iOS the screen reader works as expected and does not read the elements as clickable

Did you find any workaround?

Using a StackLayout with BindableLayout and a surrounding ScrollView can be used as a workaround. This needs more customization as a CollectionView though.
