reHoused
Accessibility
We want everyone to be able to use reHoused, including people who use a screen reader, a keyboard, large text or zoom. We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2, level AA.
What works
- Screen readers, like VoiceOver on iPhone and TalkBack on Android.
- Using the site with only a keyboard. The first link on every page skips to the main content.
- Your phone's text size setting, and zoom up to 200% without scrolling sideways.
- Light and dark mode, with strong contrast in both.
- Less motion, if your phone is set to reduce motion.
- Your browser's own translate feature. We don't block it.
- More time: your documents warn you 30 seconds before they close, with a button to keep them open.
What isn't right yet
- Spanish and other languages are not ready yet. We only add a language after a native speaker has checked it.
- We test every page with automated checks, and we checked the main pages with VoiceOver on iPhone. People who use a screen reader every day haven't tested it yet, and we'd like them to.
- Documents you upload (like PDFs) are shown as they are. We can't make them accessible.
- The pages our own team uses to run reHoused haven't been checked to the same standard.
