Why is mobile accessibility important in app development?

Hi Rebecca,

Mobile accessibility ensures that apps are usable by people with disabilities, improving inclusivity and reaching a wider audience.

For more details, refer to this blog:

Many countries have regulations mandating that digital products be accessible to people with disabilities. Ensuring mobile accessibility can help companies comply with laws such as the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) or the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG), reducing the risk of legal issues and penalties.

Prioritizing mobile accessibility can lead to a better overall user experience for all users, not just those with disabilities. Features like larger touch targets, voice commands, and adjustable text sizes can make the app easier and more enjoyable to use for everyone, leading to increased user satisfaction and retention.
