Accessible UX: Going beyond WCAG
summary
Shows concrete tests and fixes: annotated wireframes and IA to control content order, semantics and language tags; pronunciation experiments across iOS Android Windows Mobile (example: e-newsletter pronunciation test), CSS3 speech has near-zero support, and contrast targets (WCAG AA 4.5:1, consider AAA 7:1 for mobile). Recommends testing with people with disabilities, avoiding images of text, preferring sans‑serif or user‑overrideable fonts, and designing larger touch targets (guideline: 7 millimeters touch targets) with real-device usability checks.
