Articles wanted: auditing the accessibiltiy of iOS and Android mobile apps
A lot of our content skews towards the web, but smartphone apps play a large role in many people's lives. We would love posts on what to look out for when auditing mobile apps for accessibility.
Hi, I'd love to research and write on this. Here are some examples of my technical work: https://blog.arctype.com/postgres-uuid/ https://www.megethosdigital.com/why-is-sending-paid-traffic-to-your-home-page-a-bad-idea/ (ghost-written, permission given to share) And here's some of my non-technical stuff: https://darlingmagazine.org/author/lucia-cerchie/ Do you have a content guide?
@Cerchie Sounds great! Here's our content guide: https://www.a11yproject.com/content-style-guide/
@ericwbailey A clarification-- was looking at opening up an issue and realized a lot of the particulars have been written already (how to check for color contrast, making larger target sizes, etc.) Are you looking for more of a 'starter checklist' blogpost for this topic?
Sort of. Right now we have a lot of content on checking accessibility on the web, but iOS and Android have specific tools and limitations. I think the post could definitely link to existing posts for the things you mention, but I'd also like common pitfalls (lack of landscape support, dynamic text resizing, etc.) to be addressed.
Thanks for giving me more context! I'll write a post on dynamic text resizing then
