developing Core requirement

Assistive Technology Supported

Group: user-control • Guideline: assistive-technology-control

Summary in Plain English

Screen readers, switch devices, voice control, magnifiers and other assistive or adaptive technology can operate the content - not merely read it.

Why It Matters

This is the baseline the rest depends on: content that blocks or breaks assistive technology is inaccessible no matter how well it is labelled.
