Content with accessibility issues
Problems when used without visual ability
- Decorative elements read out unnecessarily
- Some icons have not been marked as purely decorative. As a result, screen readers render information that has no meaning, making effective navigation difficult.
- Unclear links with VoiceOver
- Several links are presented with generic names such as “Read more”, it also does not read out that it is a link, but VoiceOver reads it out as a button.
- Images without alternative text Some images that convey important facts or functions lack descriptive alternative text, making the content inaccessible to screen readers.
- Lack of heading structure markup Some texts are not marked as main headings, making navigation with screen readers difficult.
- Icons without correct description In some places in the app, VoiceOver reads out a general description of the icon, even though we have used the icon for a different purpose.
- Order of reading In several places in the app, the order is wrong with VoiceOver.
Problems when using with low vision
- Insufficient contrast between text and background On some event pages in the app, as well as in the tab navigation, the color contrast is too low, making the text difficult to read for people with low vision.
- Layout issues with text magnification At high text magnification, text and buttons overlap, which impairs readability. In some cases, text disappears off the screen or becomes so large that it does not fit and is then marked with ‘…’
Problems when used with color vision impairment
- Information is conveyed only in color
- The difference between active and inactive menu choices is mainly shown through color shading. Users who have difficulty distinguishing certain colors therefore risk missing important status information.
- Low contrast has an extra impact on the color blind
- The lack of contrast mentioned above particularly affects people with color vision deficits, as color contrast is already reduced.
