Accessibility — Longy: Sauna & Cold Plunge Tracker
Last updated: May 2026
At Longy, we believe our app should be usable by everyone. This page describes the accessibility features built into Longy today.
Screen Reader Support
Longy is designed to work with VoiceOver on iOS and TalkBack on Android. Every screen is built with screen reader users in mind.
- Interactive elements include clear labels so screen readers can announce what each control does.
- Roles and states identify buttons, headings, and adjustable controls, and communicate whether a control is selected, disabled, or in progress.
- Hints provide extra context for gesture-based interactions, so the purpose of an action is always clear.
Real-Time Announcements
Important changes are announced to screen readers as they happen. Critical updates are delivered immediately, while routine progress is shared more gently so it does not interrupt what you are doing.
Themes & Display
Longy uses a dark interface throughout, designed to stay comfortable in low-light environments where the app is often used.
Haptic Feedback
Longy provides haptic feedback for key interactions, giving you a tactile sense of confirmation that does not depend on sight or sound.
Navigation & Visual Alternatives
A clear heading hierarchy lets screen reader users move through each screen quickly. Visual information is paired with text alternatives so the same information is available without sight, and purely decorative graphics are hidden from screen readers to avoid unnecessary noise.
Languages & Right-to-Left Support
Longy is available in many languages and automatically detects your device language. Right-to-left layouts for Arabic, Hebrew, Persian, and Urdu are fully supported, including text direction and layout mirroring.
