The Location field in the calendar's "Edit Event" dialog is not fully functional and lacks accessibility features.

Observed behavior:

  • The Location input field appears to accept text but does not respond as expected.
  • No autocompletion suggestions are provided when users type a location.
  • No location suggestions or dropdown appear to help users select from common or previously used locations.
  • The attached screenshot shows the Location field with only placeholder text "Enter event location".

Expected behavior:

  • The Location field should be fully functional and responsive.
  • When users start typing, the field should display autocomplete suggestions.
  • Previously used locations or a location database should be queried to provide helpful suggestions.
  • A dropdown with location options should appear for better UX and accessibility.

Impact:

  • Users must manually type complete location information without assistance.
  • Reduces accessibility and ease of use for users creating calendar events.
  • Increases typing effort and potential for location entry errors.

Classification:

  • Type: feature / enhancement (missing accessibility feature)
  • Secondary: bug (Location field not fully functional)
  • Area: Calendar / event editing / location input
  • Severity: medium
  • Priority: medium
