How We Build for Everyone
Core practices
- Readable type scale and adequate line height
- Color contrast targeting WCAG 2.1 AA and better
- Large, finger-friendly touch targets on Watch and iPhone
- Clear focus styles and visible states for interactive elements
- Icons paired with text labels where clarity helps
Content & semantics
- Structured headings for screen reader navigation
- Descriptive link text instead of "click here"
- Informative alt text on meaningful images
- ARIA only when native semantics do not suffice
Platform-Specific Accessibility
Apple Watch
- Large controls and simplified layout for glanceability
- Haptic feedback on key actions (play/pause, scrub start/end)
- Respects system text size, bold text, and Reduce Motion
- VoiceOver labels on all player controls and navigation
- Digital Crown support for volume and scrubbing
iPhone
- Dynamic Type support - scalable labels and buttons
- Full VoiceOver support for player controls, track metadata, and folder browsing
- Respects Reduce Motion with subtle transitions
- High-contrast mode and dark mode fully supported
- Switch Control and AssistiveTouch compatible
Website Accessibility
- Consistent navigation with keyboard and screen reader support
- Landmarks (header, main, footer) and logical heading order
- High-contrast themes with dark mode support
- Responsive layout adapts to zoom levels up to 200%
- No content requires horizontal scrolling at standard viewport widths
Known Limitations & Improvements
- Refining VoiceOver announcements for scrubbing on Watch
- Screenshots and decorative images are being audited for consistent alt text
