ACCESSIBILITY AT OTIYA

Build for participation.
Test the barriers as well as the features.

otiya is in beta. Accessibility and inclusive play are built in, and we test them regularly. We haven’t had an independent WCAG audit yet, so this page shows exactly where we are.

BUILT INTO THE PRODUCT

Support available now.

⌨Keyboard access

Visible focus, keyboard activation for custom controls and focus-managed dialogs.

↕Zoom & reflow

Responsive layouts are designed to reflow at narrow widths and high zoom; those journeys are explicitly included in our regular testing.

◌Reduced motion

System reduced-motion preferences suppress decorative animation and learners can reduce motion further in Play Profiles.

🔊Multiple representation

Read aloud, clearer wording, visual cues and larger text can support different ways of processing a question.

☝Large interactions

Kids and school interaction targets are designed for touch and do not rely on dragging as the only way to complete activities.

▣Dialog & status semantics

Dynamic sheets expose dialog semantics, focus is returned on close and important feedback is announced politely.

ONGOING TESTING

What we are actively testing.

  • Keyboard-only journeys
  • Screen-reader landmarks, headings and dynamic status
  • 200% browser zoom and 320 CSS-pixel reflow
  • Touch target size and tap-only alternatives
  • Reduced-motion and forced-colour preferences
  • iPad, Chromebook and common school-browser behaviour
KNOWN LIMITS

What still needs external validation.

  • An independent WCAG 2.2 audit has not yet been completed
  • Speech synthesis quality depends on the browser/device voice
  • Fast-changing live-game states need continued screen-reader testing
  • Third-party authentication experiences can vary by provider
  • Real classroom testing is still required with children and educators using different access needs
