Accessibility
What we have measured, what passes, and the places this site and the app still fall short.
Last updated 25 August 2026
Draft. This is a working draft. It has not yet been reviewed by a lawyer. It is published so the app can link to it during development. Do not rely on it as final.
1What we are aiming at
We target WCAG 2.1 Level AA for this site and for the Nuvia app. That is the level most accessibility law refers to, including the Equality Act 2010 in the UK and the Americans with Disabilities Act in the US.
This page says what we have actually checked rather than claiming conformance we have not tested. Where we fall short, it is listed below.
2This website
What we have verified:
- Body text and captions meet the 4.5:1 contrast minimum, and links in the legal pages sit at 4.59:1.
- Every image carries alt text, and decorative images are hidden from assistive technology.
- Headings run in order without skipped levels, and the page language is declared.
- Every interactive element is reachable by keyboard and shows a visible focus ring. There is a skip link to the main content.
- The frequently asked questions expand and collapse without JavaScript, so they work if scripts fail.
- Animation is suppressed when your system asks for reduced motion, and the layout works at 200 per cent zoom and on a phone.
- The site sets no cookies and loads no third-party scripts, so there is no consent dialog in the way.
Known shortfalls
- The phone illustrations reproduce the app screen exactly, including small text that does not meet 4.5:1 on its own. That text is decorative rather than informational, and everything it says appears in ordinary prose nearby. We would rather show you the product accurately than redraw it, but it is a known compromise.
- We have not yet run a full audit with assistive technology on every page. This page reflects manual and automated checks, not a formal third-party audit.
3The iOS app
Nuvia supports Dynamic Type, VoiceOver and Reduce Motion. Every score is announced with its value and its reason, so nothing depends on distinguishing a colour: the ring colour is always a second signal, never the only one.
The bright green accent is used for fills, rings and strokes rather than for small text, because it does not carry enough contrast at body sizes.
4Tell us where it fails
If something is unusable with the settings you rely on, that is a bug and we want to hear about it. Write to support@nuvia.app and tell us which page or screen, and which setting you were using. We aim to reply within two working days and to fix accessibility bugs ahead of feature work.
If we do not sort it out, UK users can raise it with the Equality Advisory and Support Service, and US users with the Department of Justice ADA information line.
General help lives on the support page.
