Accessibility

We want everyone to be able to share and listen to music on Traxdrop, including people who use a screen reader, a keyboard instead of a mouse, zoom or other assistive technology.

We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at level AA.


What we do

  • You can use every page with a keyboard. Press Tab to move around; the first stop on each page is a Skip to main content link.
  • Buttons, links and form fields have labels that screen readers read out, including icon-only buttons.
  • Text and important graphics meet WCAG AA colour contrast against our dark background.
  • You can zoom pages up to 400% and use Traxdrop on screens as narrow as 320 pixels without scrolling sideways.
  • Notifications (for example "Track updated") are announced by screen readers.
  • You can log in with an emailed link or a 6-digit code - there are no passwords to remember and no time limits while you use the site.

The audio player

The player works with a keyboard and screen readers:

  • Play/Pause, Previous, Next, Download and Close are normal buttons.
  • The waveform is a slider. When it's focused, use the arrow keys to skip 5 seconds, Page Up/Page Down to skip 30 seconds, and Home/End to jump to the start or end.
  • The current time is shown as text as well as on the waveform.
  • Music never starts playing unless you press play.

Known limitations

  • The card payment field is provided by our payment processor, Stripe, and follows its own accessibility standards.
  • Linking Dropbox takes you to Dropbox's own site, which we don't control.
  • The waveform is visual. Screen readers get the track's position and length instead.
  • The bars on the Stats charts can't be selected with a keyboard. The Table view has every number and links to each track instead.
  • Messages that pop up after an action (for example "Track updated") close by themselves after a few seconds. Screen readers announce them when they appear.

We're working on these, and we regularly check Traxdrop with automated tools and by hand.
