Accessibility

Ledgr works to WCAG 2.2 level AA. This page says what we measure, on every build, against that standard; what we know still falls short; and how to tell us about anything that stops you. It is a target we work to, not a certificate: no outside body has audited Ledgr.

What is measured on every build

Each of these is an automated test, run before every release.

Text at twice its size. Each of the 15 main module screens — from Invoicing and Contacts to Payroll and Production — is drawn on a phone-width screen with text at 200%, and no button or label may be squeezed to nothing. On a narrow screen at large text, the page name moves to its own line under the top bar so the menu and the page's own buttons keep their room.
Icon buttons are named. A button that shows only an icon on a small screen still tells a screen reader what it does.
Warnings reach a screen reader. Refusals and warnings are part of the screen's accessibility information, not only coloured text.
Working offline is announced. When your connection drops, when work is saved on this device to send later, and when it has gone up, a screen reader says so — the change in the top bar's sync indicator is announced politely, without interrupting.
Messages stay long enough to read. A message such as "Contact saved on this device" stays on screen for as long as it takes to read it — about a third of a second for each word, and never less than four seconds.
Colour is never the only signal. A record waiting to sync says "Waiting to sync"; one the server refused says "Not sent".
Things you tap are big enough. Icon buttons keep a touch area of at least 48 by 48 points, even where the icon itself is smaller.

What still falls short

In a web browser, after a dialog closes, a screen reader can lose the rest of the page until it is reloaded. This is a fault in the user-interface framework Ledgr is built on, fixed in its next release; Ledgr will move to that release once it is stable and re-check every dialog. The Android, iPhone and desktop apps are not affected.
Colour contrast is checked screen by screen wherever a fault has been found, not yet measured across every screen.
The dashboard, Settings, Reports and SARS screens are not yet part of the 200% text check above.

Tell us about a barrier

If something in Ledgr stops you, or takes far longer than it should, email support@bcmobiletech.co.za and say which screen and what you were using — a screen reader, large text, a keyboard.
