Mobile Accessibility Questions

I have some questions regarding the accessibility of mobile apps. I
understand that apps can be developed using HTML for both platforms, iOS and
Android. When it comes to that type of development, it is easy to apply
WCAG.



The questions I don't have an answer to are:



1. What if the app is developed using XCode or CSharp?
2. Why some apps that have icons respond to finger taps, but not when
VO or Talkback are activated? It is not like there is a difference between
input devices. The input device is the same.
3. If the app is developed using XCode or CSharp, how can the code be
modified to make the app interface accessible with native screen readers?





Any answers to one or more of the above questions are greatly appreciated.
