Hey lazywebs, where’s a good place to learn how people who use accessibility settings and devices on phones actually use them? I want to make sure the app I work on is as accessible as I can make it. Everything I can find says “use this and it’s accessible”, but when I try the accessibility tools the result is… well garbage. So I want to find how who people actually use these tools expect them to behave so I can properly set up the app.

    @sitharus@cloudisland.nz What sort of disabilities are you trying to cater for? I wonder if it might be a good idea to reach out to Blind Low Vision NZ

    @sitharus@cloudisland.nz Maybe also include some hashtags in your post? #accessibility is the one I immediately think of. There will be others that are relevant, too.

    @sitharus@cloudisland.nz You should hire https://www.localizationlab.org/ That isn't something you can resolve reading an online article or two.
