Navigation and interaction
Navigating a website should be seamless for all users, including those who rely on keyboard
controls. UserWay’s navigation and interaction features streamline web browsing by improving
keyboard focus, simplifying page structure, and improving the accessibility of interactive elements.
Keyboard Navigation
Users navigating with a keyboard often rely on a focus outline to know where they are on the
page. UserWay’s keyboard navigation optimizes a website outline, enabling users to use only a
keyboard to flow through web pages.
Page structure
Quickly reveals page headings, landmarks, and links in an organized, intuitive, and easily
navigable way.
Element focus
Provides a clear visual indicator and automatically remediates missing indicators for keyboard
navigators.
Skip navigation
The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines state that users should be able to skip past repetitive
content. UserWay’s Skip Navigation Link lets users bypass repeated content blocks like a
navigation menu on each webpage.
Interactive elements
Automatically remediates and allows all non-interactive elements to be viewable and accessible to
mouse or keyboard users.
External links targets
Prevents opening new tabs or windows without warning, which can disorient blind users.
Autoplay videos
This feature gives users play/pause control over videos on the page. It lets site visitors choose
when content plays to prevent distractions and reduce any triggers that may cause seizures or
epileptic events.
Video captioning
Offer captioning for video content, crucial for users who are deaf, have hearing loss, or prefer
captions over audio. This feature addresses the needs of a majority of consumers, as 92% watch
videos with audio off.
Pause animations
Pauses content that moves or auto-updates that is considered an accessibility barrier. Stops
animations, blinking and flashing content that distracts and may trigger seizures.
