NeuroNav is built for and with the disability community. We are committed to making NeuroNav accessible to:
We aim to meet or exceed the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA standards, as referenced by the Australian Government's Digital Service Standard.
Reads every page, button, and AI result aloud. Works with the browser's built-in text-to-speech engine. Toggle from any screen.
Every text field has a microphone button. Speak instead of type on any feature. Works on Chrome, Edge, and Safari.
Three text sizes available from the top bar on every page — small, medium, and large. Setting is saved across sessions.
Full dark / sensory-friendly mode reduces eye strain and works well for people with light sensitivity or migraines.
Maximum contrast display for users with low vision or colour perception differences.
Reduces the interface to fewer options with larger buttons and single-column layout. Good for cognitive load reduction.
Removes animations and softens colours. Helpful for people with anxiety, ADHD, or sensory sensitivities.
Simplified language, encouraging tone, and age-appropriate content for children and teenagers aged 8–17.
Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) symbols let non-verbal users build sentences by tapping pictures.
Full keyboard navigation with visible focus indicators. Keyboard shortcuts: Alt+H (Home), Alt+S (Search), Alt+E (Emergency).
Core features (medications, routines, emergency card, handover notes) work offline — important for users with unreliable internet.
Emergency help button is permanently visible on every screen and links directly to crisis support numbers.
All AI features in NeuroNav are configured to respond in plain, simple English. We avoid jargon, use short sentences, and structure responses for easy reading. The "Simplify" feature can rewrite any text at three levels of simplicity, including easy-read format.
NeuroNav is tested with and optimised for:
All interactive elements have ARIA labels. Dynamic content updates use ARIA live regions so screen readers announce changes without requiring navigation. A skip-to-main-content link is available at the top of every page.
