Accessibility: Audits & Testing
Mobile App Accessibility
Native apps have their own accessibility rules. We test iOS and Android apps with VoiceOver and TalkBack against WCAG 2.2, Apple's Accessibility guidelines and Android's accessibility best practices - covering gestures, focus, labels and dynamic type.

Overview
Native mobile apps require platform-specific accessibility APIs and patterns. We test iOS and Android apps using real devices and native screen readers.
Our mobile audits examine touch targets, screen transitions, gesture alternatives, and dynamic font resizing to ensure native apps are fully inclusive.
