This micro-UX improvement enhances the flight tracking interface by adding tactile feedback and robust accessibility support.

💡 What

  • Haptics: The SwipeableFlightCard now triggers a medium haptic impact when crossing the swipe threshold and a success notification when the pin action completes.
  • Accessibility:
    • Flight cards now have descriptive labels for screen readers (e.g., "Pinned, FR6936, Ryanair, To, Lamezia Terme Airport, 04:00, Estimated dep 06:15").
    • Added accessibilityActions allowing screen reader users to toggle the pin via the system menu.
    • Added accessibilityHint to clarify the action.
    • Localized the notification toggle button label.

🎯 Why

Gestures like swiping are delightful but non-obvious for some users and completely inaccessible to others. Haptic feedback provides physical confirmation of the gesture, while accessibility actions ensure that everyone can use the core "Pin" feature regardless of how they navigate the UI.

♿ Accessibility

  • Added accessible={true}, accessibilityLabel, accessibilityActions, onAccessibilityAction, and accessibilityHint to the flight card component.
  • Improved the focusable state of the flight cards.
  • Fixed a hardcoded Italian string in the notification button's accessibility label.
