Accessibility

We want every child and parent to be able to enjoy Tiger Tome. We aim to follow the principles of WCAG 2.2 Level AA and we keep testing as the site grows. We do not claim formal certification or complete compliance.

What we have built in

• Keyboard navigation

  Every page can be used with a keyboard. A “Skip to main content” link appears on the first Tab press.

• Visible focus

  The item you are on is shown with a clear outline in both light and dark appearance.

• Screen-reader labels

  Buttons, links and form fields have names, pages use headings in order, and decorative pictures are hidden from screen readers.

• Text resizing and zoom

  Pages can be zoomed to 200% and beyond, and the reader offers its own text size options.

• Responsive reflow

  Content rearranges to fit narrow screens without sideways scrolling.

• Light and dark appearance

  Use the moon or sun button in the header to switch. Colours are chosen to meet WCAG AA contrast.

• Reduced motion

  If your device asks for reduced motion, Tiger Tome turns off non-essential animation.

• Touch targets

  Buttons and links are designed to be at least 44 by 44 pixels, so they are easy to tap.

Narration, captions and transcripts

Every narrated story is also available as text to read. Further options, such as word-by-word highlighting during listening, are a future consideration.

Known limitations

• Our checks so far are automated scans and browser testing. Testing on real phones and tablets with screen readers such as VoiceOver and TalkBack is still to be done.
• Lock-screen and background listening controls still need checking on real devices.
• Some administration screens used by our editors have not yet been fully reviewed.

Report a problem

If something is hard to use, please tell us which page you were on and what happened. We read every message.
