Accessibility
Knus should work for everyone at home. This page says what the app supports on iPhone and iPad, what doesn't work yet and how to report a problem.
What Knus supports
Larger Text
Knus follows your device's text size, up to the largest. Lists, the schedule, events and settings grow with it, and no text is cut off.
Dark Interface
Every screen works in light and dark. Knus follows your device, or you choose in Settings › Display.
Sufficient Contrast
In light and dark, text measures at least 4.5:1 and icons and the edges of controls at least 3:1 (WCAG AA), with one exception listed below. We measure every color pair with every change.
Differentiate Without Color
Color is never the only signal. A member's color always comes with a name or an initial, today is bold, and overdue or chosen is also said in words or with an icon. With Differentiate Without Color on, choices get an extra outline.
Reduced Motion
With Reduce Motion on, nothing slides or pops: Knus uses a short fade or no animation.
VoiceOver
Creating a household, adding an event, checking off a list, comments, the trash and settings have labels, and what a swipe, a hold or a pinch does is also an action in the rotor. An event names who it's for.
What doesn't work yet
- VoiceOver has been checked with tests and in the code. A full pass on an iPhone, from start to finish, comes before the first release.
- A blue or red text button directly on the light gray background of a settings screen measures 4.1:1, just under 4.5:1. Dark mode isn't affected.
- The day, 2-day and week views don't grow beyond the largest standard text size. The schedule does.
- With VoiceOver you can't yet change the order in a shopping list with categories or a checklist with sections. In a plain list you can.
- Moving an event to another day with VoiceOver goes through Edit, not the grid.
- We haven't tested Voice Control and Switch Control yet. Knus has no sound or video, so it needs no captions.
- The Android app, with TalkBack, comes later.
