Rupert believes travel should be for everyone, both online and in the real world.
That belief shapes how AppSavvyTraveller is designed and maintained. Whether you are using a screen reader, navigating with a keyboard, adjusting text size, or browsing on a mobile device, the site should remain clear, usable, and easy to follow.
Accessibility is not treated as a box to tick. It is part of the wider goal to make travel information open, practical, and accessible for as many people as possible. From clear headings and logical structure to strong colour contrast and descriptive alt text, the site is continually reviewed and improved.
If something does not work as expected, we want to hear from you. Rupert is always looking for ways to improve the experience, and your feedback helps make the site better for everyone.

Our Commitment to Accessibility
At AppSavvyTraveller.com, we are committed to making our website accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of ability, technology, or circumstance.
Everyone should have equal access to travel guides, app recommendations, and planning tools without unnecessary barriers.
We aim to follow the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA and regularly review both content and design to improve usability.
This statement explains the steps we are taking, where limitations remain, and how you can report any issues.
Measures We Have Taken
We have designed the site with accessibility in mind across multiple areas.
All images include descriptive alt text so they can be understood by screen readers and assistive technologies.
The site is built to support keyboard navigation, allowing users to move through menus, links, and content without a mouse.
We use readable fonts with strong contrast and scalable sizing so text remains clear across different devices and settings.
Where appropriate, ARIA landmarks are used to improve navigation for screen reader users.
All pages follow a clear heading structure, making content easier to scan and understand.
Colours are selected to meet contrast guidelines, ensuring readability for users with low vision.
Links are written with descriptive text, so users understand where they lead without needing additional context.
We avoid relying on colour alone to convey meaning, ensuring that key actions and information remain clear.
Layouts are kept consistent across the site, helping users navigate without confusion.
Known Accessibility Limitations
We are aware of some areas where accessibility may not yet be fully optimised.
Some third party embedded content, such as booking widgets, maps, or app store elements, may not fully meet accessibility standards. These are controlled by external providers.
Certain affiliate tools and banners may occasionally lack full labelling or alt attributes.
On smaller screens, some comparison tables may require horizontal scrolling. We are working to improve mobile-friendly layouts.
A small number of older pages may use colour to highlight categories or routes. These are being reviewed and updated.
We are actively working to improve these areas and welcome feedback from users who encounter issues.
Supported Browsers and Tools
The site is designed to work across modern browsers and assistive technologies.
This includes screen readers such as NVDA, VoiceOver, and JAWS, along with zoom and magnification tools, speech recognition software, and major desktop and mobile browsers including Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Microsoft Edge.
Testing is carried out using tools such as WAVE, axe DevTools, and Lighthouse to identify and resolve accessibility issues.
Feedback and Contact
If you experience difficulty using any part of the site, we want to hear from you.
Please use the Contact Us form available in the website footer and include the page URL, a description of the issue, and any assistive technology or browser you are using.
We aim to respond to accessibility feedback within 7 business days and to implement improvements as quickly as possible.
Legal Compliance
We aim to comply with the UK Equality Act 2010, the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA, and recognised best practices for inclusive digital publishing.
