Teams Accessibility Resources from Microsoft

All resources from Microsoft will have information on using Teams in the Windows Desktop and Web applications as well as on Android, Mac, and iOS devices in a list of tabs across the screen. To switch among tabs, ensure screen reader focus is in the tab area and use Left and Right Arrows to move among the options. There is not a need to press Enter to activate the tab since it will be automatically open when it receives screen reader focus.
