Mobile as a Barrier Reducer

  • GPS:
  • Where is this person?
  • Help me find my way
  • Reduced device size, several

devices in one

accessibility best practices

  • Working with customer/vendor to understand accessibility

requirements and standards

Workflow

Workflow needs:

  • Alt text built into process: content creators writing good alt text
  • Designers considering color contrast and providing technical specs
