Navigation
Districts want to ensure their technology is not only compliant with accessibility minimum requirements, but also designed with accessibility in mind from the get go, so that all educators and learners, regardless of ability, can easily access information in ways that best suit their needs. Take a look at the accessibility features found in SchoolInfo’s mobile app.
Users with limited physical and motor skills can use Switch Control, which allows them to navigate the app without any physical touch. Another option is Assistive Touch: the tool where you create your own screen gestures that move you around the app. Or, if you prefer using a keyboard rather than a touch screen, SchoolInfo app is accessible through other devices. Providing choices for unique, individual learners is key to true accessibility.
For app users with low vision or blindness, VoiceOver (iOS) or TalkBack (Android) are quality screen readers. And, SchoolInfo app was designed with screen readers in mind, so users will find it easy to navigate through text, buttons, notifications, calendars, and more. Screen readers are also often used by those who need extra assistance in reading or who have learning differences.
People with limited vision and color blindness also have multiple options. Zoom and Magnifier can enlarge content, colors can be inverted or customized for individual preferences and needs, and, again, the app can be accessed on devices with larger monitors as well.
Accessibility shouldn’t be a checkbox item you mark after the fact. Our students deserve more. That’s why we build tools that help educators and parents provide equitable access to information for everyone.
