Accessibility statement
SteadyStrong is built for people with low vision, arthritis, low dexterity and early memory changes. Accessibility is not a feature bolted on at the end — it shaped the layout, the typography, the colours and the wording from the first screen.
What is included
Six ways SteadyStrong adapts to you
Large text mode
One switch raises the base text size from 18 to 20 pixels and scales headings and buttons with it, so nothing is left stranded at the old size.
High contrast mode
Swaps the warm palette for pure black text on pure white, thickens every border to 2 pixels, and removes soft shadows that can reduce edge clarity.
Read aloud
Every routine step can be read out loud using your device’s own voice. Nothing is sent anywhere — the reading happens on your device.
Keyboard first
Every control is reachable with Tab and operable with Enter or Space. Focus rings are 3 pixels thick, high contrast, and never removed.
Works at 200% zoom
Content reflows instead of clipping. Nothing overlaps, and no text is lost when you enlarge the page in your browser.
Motion you control
Animations are limited to 250 milliseconds, and your device’s reduced-motion setting is respected automatically, with a manual switch as well.
The standards we hold ourselves to
We follow the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines version 2.2 at level AA. These are the commitments that matter most for our audience.
- Text meets at least 4.5 to 1 contrast, and 7 to 1 in high contrast mode
- Interactive targets are at least 48 by 48 pixels, well above the 24 pixel minimum
- A skip-to-content link is the first thing keyboard users reach
- Form fields always have visible labels — never placeholder text alone
- Errors are written in plain language and announced to screen readers automatically
- Video and step instructions are always available as readable text, never audio alone
- State is never shown by colour alone — every colour change is paired with an icon and words
- Headings follow a logical order with exactly one main heading per page
Using SteadyStrong with a keyboard
| Key | What it does |

| Tab | Moves to the next control, including the skip link at the very top |
| Shift and Tab | Moves back to the previous control |
| Enter or Space | Activates buttons, switches and step cards |
| Escape | Closes the accessibility panel and any open dialog |
Known limitations
We would rather tell you than let you discover it. Read-aloud uses the voice built into your device, so quality varies between phones and computers, and a few older devices do not offer it at all — the button simply does not appear in that case. Routine photographs include descriptive alternative text, but they are illustrations of the movement rather than a substitute for the written instructions.
