Accessibility
Last updated:
mapdap is for everyone. We build and test our app to work with the accessibility features built into your device, and we keep improving it. This page explains what mapdap supports and how to reach us if something gets in your way.
What mapdap supports
VoiceOver & Voice Control — The core of the app — signing in, exploring the map, posting and viewing vibes, chatting, and your profile — is labeled so you can navigate and act using a screen reader or your voice.
Reduce Motion — When Reduce Motion is turned on, we remove or soften non-essential animation — looping and sliding effects become simple fades.
Increase Contrast — When Increase Contrast (Reduce Transparency) is turned on, translucent surfaces become solid for clearer, higher-contrast reading.
Dark appearance — Full light and dark themes that follow your system setting, or the theme you choose in the app.
Not color alone — Status and activity are shown with text and icons as well as color, so meaning never depends on color vision.
What we're still improving
We're honest about where we're not there yet. In-app text-size scaling (Dynamic Type) isn't fully supported, and a few secondary screens and map elements have limited screen-reader support. These are areas we're actively working on.
