RE: Joshue O Connor suggestion

I like it - if we add timely and useful do we have to quantify what we mean by 'timely' and 'useful'?  Too much of a delay and they do not wait for the feedback and too complex - it does not help.   It has to be clear but also useful so the user understands the feedback and can act on it.

3.5.1 The success or failure of every action should be clearly indicated to the user with a timely and useful accessible feedback loop.

Subject: Joshue O Connor suggestion

Joshue O Connor suggested the following change.

 3.5.1 The success or failure of every action should be clearly indicated to the user and visual rapid feedback should be available. Spoken feedback should be a user selectable option.

Would be better as.

3.5.1 The success or failure of every action should be clearly indicated to the user in an accessible feedback loop.

The term 'accessible feedback loop'  could be defined in the notes or understanding section?

This would cover multi modal access etc for all disability types.
I am not sure it is simpler -what does everyone else think

All the best
