  • Navigate most of the application using just a keyboard.

  • Navigate most of the application using speech recognition software.

  • Listen to most of the application using a screen reader (including the most recent versions of JAWS, NVDA, and VoiceOver).

We’ve also made the application text as simple as possible to understand, removing unnecessary accounting jargon wherever we can.


How accessible this application is
