Mobile Accessibility When Using the Scoop Commute App

Scoop Commute is designed to be accessible for all users, including those who rely on assistive technologies like screen readers and dynamic text scaling. If you use TalkBack on Android or VoiceOver on iOS, you can navigate the app using swipe gestures and spoken feedback. Key elements, such as buttons, menus, and trip details, are labeled for clarity, ensuring that screen reader users can access important information.

For users who need larger text, Scoop Commute Android supports dynamic text scaling, meaning that text throughout the app will adjust based on your system font size settings. This ensures readability without breaking the app’s layout. Additionally, all interactive elements, including buttons and touch areas, are sized appropriately for easy tapping, making navigation smoother for users with motor impairments.
