Revelo is for everyone
Music and brand deals shouldn't be harder for anyone to reach. Here's what we do, what we've checked, and where we still have work to do.
What we aim for
We build Revelo to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, level AA. That means real buttons and links you can reach with a keyboard, text that has enough contrast, pictures that have descriptions, forms with labels, and pages a screen reader such as VoiceOver, TalkBack, NVDA or JAWS can make sense of.
Our accessibility menu (the round button at the bottom of every page) is a convenience on top of that. It is not a replacement for a site that works properly, and it does not make a site accessible on its own.
What we check
- An automated check (axe-core, WCAG 2.0 and 2.1 A and AA) runs on our main public and signed-in screens every time we release. It currently reports no serious or critical issues.
- The same screens are checked at phone width for anything that spills off the side or is too small to tap.
- Dialogs trap and restore keyboard focus, and animation respects your device's reduce-motion setting.
Automated checks find only part of the problems. We have not yet had an outside accessibility audit.
The menu
What the accessibility menu does
Text size
Make everything larger (two steps).
High contrast
White background, black text and outlined sections.
Easier-to-read text
Swaps the tall poster headings for the plain body typeface, in normal case, with more line spacing.
Underline links
Every link is underlined.
Reduce motion
Turns off animation and confetti. Revelo also follows your device's own reduce-motion setting.
Read this page aloud
Speaks the page using your browser's built-in voice. Not every browser has one.
Your choices are saved only in your own browser. We never receive them.
Honest limits
Where we fall short
- Audio, video and pictures that other people upload (songs, finished posts, deal files) come without captions or descriptions unless the person who made them adds them. Revelo doesn't add them for you.
- Embedded players from Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, SoundCloud, TikTok and Instagram follow those services' own accessibility.
- The swipe deck works with the left and right arrow keys, but we haven't tested every screen reader with it. Every deal can also be reached from lists.
- New chat messages are not always announced by a screen reader as they arrive.
