It's a topic everyone should consider. Many standardization organizations like W3C have recommendations about it. So let's have a look at Android's guide, obviously.

What I'd say may be the most important thing is that markers, which are usually images, can get an alternative text. So that TTS engines can read them.

This is a great idea! Do you happen to know how apps like Google Maps work with TTS?

We'll also want to look into the best practices for this on iOS.

I have no idea. I just assume they likely follow their own checklist.
