Accessibility & Universal Design

Designing a website, app, or other product for yourself, as it works sitting in your office, is foolish, wasteful, and limits your opportunities.

4ourth Mobile believes strongly in universal design. We make all our products so they will work well for as many users as possible.

That doesn't mean going back through the design to add features for users with specific disabilities, but designing everything from the ground to work for every one of your users, in every circumstance and environment.

Almost all of us will suffer an injury, illness, or will simply be carrying a shopping bag, or standing outside on a sunny day when trying to see and click our mobile phones. The concept of temporary disability means we design everything for easy viewing, simple understanding, and easy clicking, so everyone can be satisfied with your digital products.

Permanent or long-term disability impacts some 20% of the world. And if access to that billion dollar market doesn’t mean anyuthing for you, accessible design of digital products is increasingly the law. If if you try to cheat you will get taken to court, and will loose .

If you want to learn even more about this, watch our video training on Designing Products for Everyone.

Skipping accessibility is leaving money on the table by ignoring, or actively offending, a huge customer base. Contact 4ourth Mobile today to start increasing your audience size, and increasing the satisfaction of your current customers.
