The most common accessibility problem we found is a lack of labels. What good is a button when you can’t tell what it does? These can be usually fixed application-wide in a few hours by adding simple attributes (like "aria-label": https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Accessibility/ARIA/Attributes/aria-label).
Some frameworks even have linters that automatically tell you when you have missing labels - super convenient. https://github.com/FormidableLabs/eslint-plugin-react-native-a11y
