RE: Applicability of few WCAG 2.1 SC’s for Native mobile apps:

It may be helpful to look at these criterion in terms of the standards such as EN 301 549 v 3.1.1 that apply them to native mobile apps.  That standard has a Annex C which provides test procedures and addresses inapplicability specific items.

Because nobody answered yet a brief answer from me:

The WCAG is not limited to certain techniques.

If your App has to be WCAG compliant, it must meet all criterions.

How to request these requirements? Change text spacing, open your App on a 320px wide device (reflow) and so on...

    Dear Members,
    I request your thoughts on the applicability of the following SC’s for
    a Native mobile app in both IOS and Android platforms.
    1.3.5 Identify Input Purpose (AA)
    1.4.10 Reflow (AA)
    1.4.12 Text Spacing (AA)
    1. Whether these apply to native mobile app?
    2. If Yes, how does one validate a mobile app against the requirements
    of these SC’s?
    3. How to meet the requirements?
