At Connected, equity and accessibility are core values. Connected is designed to be usable by as many people as possible, and we treat accessibility as an integral part of the product build, rather than an afterthought.
What We Do
We strive to make Connected accessible in accordance with the WCAG 2.1 AA standard (the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) developed by the World Wide Web Consortium, Guideline 2.1, Level AA). Specifically:
- Testing: We have tested our platform with automated and manual checks on phone and browser sizes. We have not had an independent audit.
- Color contrast: Checked automatically in the app’s theme (there is no dark theme).
- Screen Reader Support: Interactive controls carry labels for screen readers, and we are checking every screen.
- Text Scaling: Text follows your device’s text-size setting, up to 200%.
- Alt Text: We included embedded alt text for our platform images.
- Web Accessibility: The app builds a full accessibility tree on load.
- Reduced Motion: If you turn on your device’s reduce-motion setting, Connected opens screens without sliding transitions and keeps other animation to a minimum.
- Responsive Design: Layouts are tested at smaller phone widths to ensure content is not cut off or compressed.
