Accessibility
Kinacre should be easy to use for everyone, on a phone or a computer, with a keyboard, a screen reader or a magnifier.
What we aim for
We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at level AA.
What works
- The calculator, the guides and every form can be used with a keyboard alone, and the item you’re on is clearly outlined.
- When the calculator’s result changes, screen readers announce it.
- Text and buttons meet the contrast levels in WCAG, in both light and dark mode.
- Pages work when zoomed to 200%, and on screens as narrow as a small phone.
- The main pages were checked with the axe accessibility checker in October 2026, and the problems it found were fixed.
What doesn’t work yet
- Marking out land on the land check’s map, or picking fields on it, needs a mouse, trackpad or touch screen. Searching for a place works with a keyboard.
- The map itself can’t be described in full to a screen reader, though the results below it can be read.
