Announcing PowerApps web part (preview) for SharePoint Online
As somebody extolling the virtues of SharePoint and Powerapps in a large organization that supports visually impaired people I would like to know if the statement that the app does not yet support screen readers and keystroke navigation means this is something you are working on supporting and if there is any indication of when this would be achieved. Without it I can demonstrate the power of the tool all I like but I won't be allowed to use it as many of my visually impaired colleagues and service users will be completely unable to use it.

Yes, we are actively working with PowerApps team so business users can build apps that are accessible by default. I don't have a timeline but this is currently being worked on.
