Steps to reproduce: 1. Launch the KDE Connect app in Linux. I'm using 24.02.0 in Fedora 40. 2. In the window that lists devices, provides a button to find devices, and a Settings button, try to use Tab to move among the widgets. Expected results: Tab would move you among the widgets and then space or enter could be used to activate the widget. Actual results: Tab does nothing; to get into settings, find devices, etc., you have to click. Impact: Orca users have to attempt to synthesize a click to activate settings, etc. Something which does not currently work reliably due to Issues(tm). I'm the Orca maintainer btw. Fixing the issues on my side also involves changes being made QT (for one solution) and in AT-SPI and Wayland compositors (for a different solution), so Orca users will benefit a lot sooner if you fix the keyboard navigability in KDE Connect. :) Please and thank you very much in advance!

Git commit dcaae842a6cbee093d0a440cbd350efa597f45ef by Christoph Wolk. Committed on 26/02/2025 at 06:30. Pushed by cwo into branch 'master'. app: make sidebar keyboard-accessible The sidebar containing a list of devices is currently not keyboard- accessible and requires mouse-clicking. This is inconvenient and challenging for screen reader users in particular. This change inserts the sidebar list into the focus chain, makes it navigable with arrow keys, and places initial focus there for convenience.
