Accessibility

We want Career Compass by MyKey to work for everyone. Our goal is to follow the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at Level AA. We are not finished. This page says what we have done, how we checked it, and what we have not checked yet.

What we have built in

You can reach and use every button, link and box with a keyboard alone.
A "Skip to main content" link is the first stop on every screen.
When you open a tool, save something or delete something, the keyboard focus moves to a sensible place, so you do not lose your spot.
Short messages such as "Career idea saved." are sent to screen readers.
Each screen has one main heading, and each tool has its own page title.
In the Interests Explorer, each set of three answers is marked as one choice out of three, and you can move between the answers with the arrow keys.
Text has strong contrast against its background, and the outlines of text boxes and choice buttons are easy to see.
A choice you have picked shows a check mark as well as a color.
Buttons and links are at least 44 pixels tall, so they are easier to tap.
The app fits a small phone screen, 320 pixels wide, with no sideways scrolling. It also works with text set to twice the usual size.
The starry background moves gently. A Pause motion button in the bottom corner stops all movement, and your choice is remembered on this device. If your device is set to Reduce Motion, the background stays still.
If a save button is not ready, pressing it tells you what is missing.
There is no sound, no timer and no flashing.

How we tested

We tested on October 11, 2026. We ran automated axe checks on every screen. We walked through every tool using only a keyboard. We checked the app at a phone width of 320 pixels and with larger text. We checked it with Reduce Motion turned on. All of this was done in the Chromium browser.

What we know still needs work

On a small phone with text set to twice the usual size, long words and some headings break in the middle of a word. Everything stays on the screen, but it is harder to read.
The four tool cards on the main screen have a faint outline. The words on each card are clear, but the edge of the card is hard to see.

What we have not tested yet

People who use VoiceOver or TalkBack every day have not tested the app yet.
Switch control.
Windows High Contrast.
The Safari and Firefox browsers.
Real phones and tablets.
The app inside each flipbook viewer.
