How Speexx is Built to be Accessible

With more people working and learning from home, it’s critical that all digital products and solutions are indeed accessible to all; face to face is simply no longer an option in many cases. This is why Speexx is committed to providing a simple, compelling online experience for all users.

Over the past year, we’ve made great progress in improving the features and functionalities in Speexx to provide a smooth user experience for those who require an accessible Speexx solution due to a physical disability (or for any other reason).

Starting today, Speexx is now fully compliant with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA.

Here are some further details on the features that make Speexx accessible:

• Screen reader support– this helps users with limited vision by reading the content on the screen out loud.
• Keyboard navigation– users can navigate with their keyboard without the use of a mouse or trackpad.
• Color contrast – this is designed with low vision and color-blind users in mind.

These improvements provide for a seamless digital language learning experience for all users of all abilities.

#SpeexxIsTheNewNormal means empowering communication through technology. Making our product accessible for all users brings us one step closer towards fostering stronger communication for all people.
