Accessibility and usability barriers
The following barriers were identified in a November 2023 accessibility evaluation of Slido. This is not an exhaustive list of the barriers a user may encounter when using Slido.
Screen reader barriers may impact users who are blind or have low vision
Slido has unlabeled buttons and unlabeled form items. Some important features lack appropriate context and description for a screen reader user to use well.
Keyboard navigation barriers may impact users with motor disabilities
Some keyboard focus indicators are missing a top, bottom, left, or right side. Some keyboard focus indicators do not have strong contrast, which makes it difficult to follow the keyboard navigation.
Magnification and reflow barriers may impact users with low vision
At magnification 300% and above, not all items are available for users. At higher magnification, the top app bar in the menu overwhelms the viewport, making it difficult to read.
Color contrast barriers may impact users who are color blind or have low vision
Some buttons, menu items, keyboard focus indicators, and other interface elements have low contrast.
