Eczema Tracker Accessibility

Accessibility Statement

This accessibility statement applies to the My Eczema Tracker mobile app available on the Apple store and Android Play Store.

Commitment

The University of Nottingham is committed to making the My Eczema Tracker app accessible, in accordance with the Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) (No. 2) Accessibility Regulations 2018.

Compliance statement

The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) defines requirements for designers and developers to improve accessibility for people with disabilities. It defines three levels of conformance: Level A, Level AA, and Level AAA.  My Eczema Tracker app is partially conformant with WCAG 2.1 level AA. Partially conformant means that some parts of the content do not fully conform to the accessibility standard.

Non-compliance 

  • Some components are restricted to allow only limited upward font scaling
    • Majority of clickable buttons
    • Majority of text components ( or in plain language, portions of text )
  • Components that have font scaling disabled
    • Tab bar icon & label text ( bottom of screen )
    • Top of screen headings eg. Home and Results
    • Tabbed headers in Results screen ( POEM/RECAP tabs )

In all cases where font scaling has been disabled or is restricted, the components have accessible labels which will be announced by Talkback/VoiceOver.
