Sorry, I don't know. These IPTC fields are relatively new it may take a while before they are widely supported.

You'll have to research how Alt Text can be used in the software/service you'll be using. For example, here is a thread about using it in Wordpress Media Library Assistant:

If you enter the Alt Text in Bridge, it will be in the file and ready when other software is capable of reading it.

The Bridge metadata panel - IPTC Core has Alt Text (Accessibility) and Extended Description (Accessibility).

These embed the Alt Text as XMP metadata in the file so you need accessibility tools that can read it.
