Accessibility
Technology should work for everyone.
Our Commitment
Accessibility is not an afterthought at Turtle's Edge. It's built into everything we do from the start. We believe that everyone deserves software that works for them, regardless of ability.
What We Support
All Turtle's Edge apps are designed and tested to work with:
VoiceOver
Every screen, button, and interactive element in our apps is fully accessible via VoiceOver. We write custom accessibility labels where needed to ensure a natural, intuitive experience for screen reader users.
Dynamic Type
Our apps respect your system text size preferences. Whether you prefer larger text for readability or smaller text to see more content, our layouts adapt gracefully. We test at all Dynamic Type sizes, including the largest accessibility sizes.
High Contrast & Color
We ensure sufficient color contrast throughout our apps and never rely on color alone to convey information. Our apps work well with the system Increase Contrast setting and support both light and dark modes.
Reduce Motion
When you enable Reduce Motion in system settings, our apps minimize or eliminate animations that could cause discomfort.
Switch Control & Voice Control
Our apps are designed to work with alternative input methods, including Switch Control and Voice Control. All interactive elements are properly labeled and reachable.
Our Testing Process
Before any feature ships, it must pass accessibility testing:
- Full VoiceOver navigation of all new screens and flows
- Dynamic Type testing at all size categories
- Color contrast verification
- Testing with Reduce Motion enabled
- Keyboard navigation testing (for iPad with keyboard)
If a feature doesn't work for everyone, it doesn't ship.
Website Accessibility
This website is designed to meet WCAG 2.1 Level AA standards. We use:
- Semantic HTML for proper document structure
- Sufficient color contrast ratios
- Descriptive alt text for images
- Keyboard-navigable interface
- Responsive design that works at any zoom level
Report an Accessibility Issue
Accessibility bugs are treated as high-priority issues. If you encounter any barrier using our apps or this website, we want to know immediately so we can fix it.
Email: accessibility@turtlesedge.com
When reporting an issue, it helps if you can include:
- Which app or page you were using
- What you were trying to do
- What assistive technology you use (VoiceOver, Switch Control, etc.)
- What happened vs. what you expected
We respond to every accessibility report and aim to ship fixes as quickly as possible—often within days, not weeks. You'll hear back from us, and we'll let you know when the fix is available.
