Accessibility

Conformance Status

Settlewood aims to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA. We continually review and improve our app to ensure it is usable by as many people as possible, including those who use assistive technologies.

Accessibility Features

Settlewood includes the following accessibility features: • Semantic roles and labels for screen readers (VoiceOver, TalkBack, NVDA) • Full keyboard navigation on web (Tab, arrow keys, Escape, Enter/Space) • Visible focus indicators on all interactive elements • Skip-to-content link for keyboard users • Focus trapping and focus management in modals • Live region announcements for asynchronous events (analysis complete, upload success) • Dark mode support that follows your system preference • Reduced motion support — animations are simplified or skipped when you prefer reduced motion • Dynamic Type / font scaling support • Color contrast ratios that meet WCAG AA minimums (4.5:1 for normal text, 3:1 for large text) • Information is never conveyed by color alone — text labels, icons, and patterns supplement color cues

Known Limitations

We are aware of the following limitations and are working to address them: • Touch targets on some icon buttons may be smaller than the recommended 44×44pt minimum • The progress chart may not convey all data points to screen reader users • Manual screen reader testing across all platforms is ongoing
