Accessibility

Our Commitment

Neon Media, LLC is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for people with disabilities. We are continually improving the user experience for everyone and applying relevant accessibility standards to our websites and native Apple platform applications.

We aim to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA for our web properties, and to follow Apple's Human Interface Guidelines and platform accessibility APIs for our iOS and macOS apps.

Conformance Status

Our web properties are partially conformant with WCAG 2.1 Level AA. Partially conformant means that some parts of the content do not fully conform to the accessibility standard. We are actively working to address known gaps.

Native iOS and macOS applications rely on platform-level accessibility APIs (UIAccessibility, AppKit Accessibility) and are designed to work with assistive technologies built into Apple operating systems.

Web Accessibility Features

Our websites currently include the following accessibility features:

• Semantic HTML — Proper heading hierarchy (H1→H2→H3), landmark regions, and meaningful link text.
• Keyboard navigation — All interactive elements are reachable and operable by keyboard. Focus states are visible.
• ARIA labels — Buttons and controls without visible text labels include descriptive aria-label attributes.
• Color contrast — Text and interactive elements meet or exceed WCAG 2.1 Level AA contrast ratios (4.5:1 for normal text, 3:1 for large text).
• Descriptive image alt text — All meaningful images include descriptive alternative text. Decorative images use empty alt attributes.
• Responsive design — All pages are usable at browser text sizes up to 200% without loss of content or functionality.
• Reduced motion — Scroll-triggered animations, smooth scrolling, and WebGL effects are disabled or resolved to static states when prefers-reduced-motion is enabled.
• Skip navigation — A keyboard-accessible skip-to-main-content link is available on all pages.

iOS & macOS App Accessibility

Our native Apple platform apps support the following system accessibility features:

• VoiceOver — All interactive controls, content labels, and navigation elements include accessibility identifiers and traits for full VoiceOver screen reader support.
• Dynamic Type — Text throughout our apps scales with the user's preferred reading size, including accessibility text sizes.
• Reduce Motion — Apps respond to the Reduce Motion system setting by minimizing or removing non-essential animations.
• Increase Contrast — Where supported, apps adjust UI element rendering when Increase Contrast is enabled in system settings.
• Bold Text — Apps support the Bold Text system setting, increasing font weight across UI text.
• Keyboard & Switch Control — Interactive elements are accessible via full keyboard navigation on iPad and Bluetooth keyboards, and via Switch Control.
• Appearance modes — All apps support System, Light, and Dark appearance, respecting the user's system preference by default.

Known Limitations

Despite our efforts to ensure accessibility, some limitations exist. We are aware of the following issues and are actively working to address them:

• Apps — Widgets (WidgetKit)

  iOS and macOS widgets operate within WidgetKit constraints. Some widget content may have limited VoiceOver interaction. The main app experience is fully accessible.

• Apps — Beta software (eve)

  eve is currently in public beta. Accessibility support is being actively developed and refined. Known accessibility gaps in beta software may not yet be addressed.
