You can also just use two Double quotes to create a Double quote in a string like this:
"Check the following ""Text"""
Which will result in the following text:
Check the following "Text"

Hi @serastpan,

Double quotes within PowerApps has different meaning other than the character.

If you would like to show this character in Text, we could take use of the Char() function, which would translates a character code into a string.

For example,

"Check the following"&Char(34)&"Text"&Char(34)

Regards,
