Summary

Searching inside a chat shows which result is being looked at, as "3 of 27" next to the arrows that go through the results. The count is drawn rather than written, so nothing reads it, and moving to the next or the previous result says nothing at all.

Let the count be reached by a screen reader, and have it told as soon as going through the results moves to another one.

Checking it

With TalkBack on, search inside a chat for something with more than one result, and go through them with the arrows.

Before, the count beside the arrows was drawn rather than written, so nothing read it, and moving to the next or the previous result said nothing at all. Now the count can be reached, and moving through the results says where it has got to.
