Accessibility Statement

Cash Reader is built for people who are blind or have low vision. Accessibility is not a feature we added later; it is the entire purpose of the app. We are committed to keeping Cash Reader fully usable with the assistive technology our users rely on every day.

Conformance status

Cash Reader conforms to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at Level AA. Because Cash Reader is a native mobile app, the WCAG success criteria are interpreted for non-web software in line with the W3C WCAG2ICT guidance.

We document this in detail in our Accessibility Conformance Report, written in the standard VPAT 2.5 format.

Standards we work to

We target WCAG 2.2 Level AA. The same success criteria are the technical basis for the major accessibility laws and standards, so our conformance work supports them as well:

• WCAG 2.2, Level A and Level AA (W3C)
• US Section 508, which incorporates WCAG Level AA by reference
• EN 301 549, the European standard referenced by the European Accessibility Act
• Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), where WCAG is the practical benchmark for digital accessibility

How accessibility is built in

Cash Reader can be operated entirely without sight:

• Screen readers: optimized for Apple VoiceOver and Google TalkBack, with clear labels, roles, and status messages on every screen.
• Speech: the recognized banknote value is spoken aloud, which is the primary output of the app.
• Vibration: distinct, countable vibration patterns convey the value without sound, which helps in both noisy and quiet places.
• High contrast: a large, high-contrast display for users with some remaining vision, which respects the system text size.
• No accounts: there is no sign-in or authentication to get past, removing a common accessibility barrier.

Recognition runs on the device and works offline after a one-time currency download, so the app stays fast and reliable wherever it is used.

Independent testing

Beyond our own testing with VoiceOver, TalkBack, and the platform accessibility inspectors, Cash Reader has been reviewed by screen-reader users at TyfloCentrum o.p.s., a Czech non-profit organization serving people who are blind or visually impaired. Their functional testing found no accessibility barriers. Cash Reader is also validated every day by its user base, which consists almost entirely of blind and low-vision people.

Giving feedback

If you run into an accessibility problem, or something does not work the way you expect, please tell us. Accessibility feedback goes straight to the person responsible for it:

Email: [email protected]

We aim to reply within a few business days. When you write, it helps to include your device and operating system, the assistive technology you use (for example VoiceOver or TalkBack), and a short description of what happened.

If we cannot resolve it

We want to fix accessibility issues directly and quickly. If you are not satisfied with our response, you may be able to raise the matter with the accessibility enforcement body in your country or region.
