What's new?

Adjusted support for talk back features with better component meta data like position (header, title), type definition (button, link), improved spacing and screen ordering.

Why is it valuable?

By making the Canvas Mobile apps more accessible, we enhance usability for all users, reduce legal and compliance risks, and expand our potential audience to include individuals who rely on assistive technologies.
