Mobile app accessibility by feature type

Accessibility considerations for common features in mobile apps, such as forms, navigation, media and images, touch and gestures.

Screen structure and headings

Organise content logically and with a clear heading hierarchy.

Make text readable and resizable for everyone.

Make your app work in both portrait and landscape orientations.

Make sure graphical and interactive components have sufficient contrast.

Manage focus so that everyone can interact efficiently with your app, including those who use a keyboard or switch with your app.

Make interactive elements large enough for everyone to use.

Make visual non-text content accessible in mobile apps.

Making form inputs clear and understandable.

Help users to avoid making errors, and to understand and fix them when filling out forms or input components.

Make sure all functionality can be controlled through simple, single-pointer actions that do not require precise movements.
