Re: Query on VPAT for Mobile Application

The keyboard criteria can be evaluated by using a Bluetooth keyboard with your mobile device. Note that on iOS, there is no visible focus unless VoiceOver is turned on, so there is not true “keyboard only” access. On Android, there is capability for a visual focus for all keyboard users.

Thanks Jonathan for the response.

On a further note the success criterias I mentioned (as an example) above belongs to WCAG 2.0.
My query would be how do we evaluate such SC for a mobile application?

Hi,

I have a query or maybe it's my lack of knowledge.

I am evaluating a mobile application for WCAG 2.1 AA compliance.

I am required to create a VPAT report for the application and wanted to know how certain Success Creterias would apply.
For example 2.1.1, 2.1.2, 2.4.3, 2.4.7, etc.

I am confused whether to classify the Success Criteria as 'Supports' or 'Not Applicable'.

Any suggestions or information is appreciated.
It would also be great if anyone can share some references.

Thanking in anticipation.
