Mobile Accessibility Examples from UAAG

Dear WAI Interest Group Participants,

One aspect of mobile accessibility is how web browsers on mobile devices support the accessibility needs of people with disabilities. Accessibility of web browsers is covered in User Agent Accessibility Guidelines (UAAG).

A new page shows examples of how web browsers that follow UAAG 2.0 benefit people with disabilities using the Web on mobile devices:
