Accessibility statement

What it covers

The website wspell.com in English and Russian: the public pages and the app you use after signing in.

Target and status

Our target is the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at level AA, the level the European standard EN 301 549 sets for websites.

wspell is partially conformant with it: some parts do not meet it yet. The ones we know of are listed below.

Known limitations

• Red text in the knowledge map. The red “Remove” and “Remove all” buttons in the knowledge map’s panels have a contrast of 2.5 to 3.0 : 1 in the light theme, below the 4.5 : 1 WCAG asks of text that size (1.4.3).
• The typing drill on a touch screen or in a narrow window. The words already typed are deliberately faded, to 3.3 : 1 (4.1 in the dark theme). That is enough for letters as large as the drill sets them on a wide screen, but on a touch screen, or in a window 640 pixels wide or narrower, the letters are smaller, and WCAG asks 4.5 : 1 of text that size.
• The coloured action buttons. The buttons filled with the brand’s pastel colours — a drill’s “Start” on the practice page, the exam cards’ “start”, the flashcard pile sheet’s button, a true-or-false choice once picked and a dialog’s confirm — carry white labels at 1.7 to 2.5 : 1, in the light and the dark theme, below the 4.5 : 1 WCAG asks of text that size (1.4.3); only the picked true-or-false answer reads well in the dark theme. We keep the brand’s look for them for now.
• The flashcard deck’s header. In the light theme the “in deck” count beside the progress bar reads 2.6 : 1 and the white counters on the pile colours 1.9 to 2.0 : 1; in the dark theme the set name on the deck’s header (1.1 : 1), the count (3.1 : 1), the “Again” and “Know” labels under the piles (1.8 : 1) and the counters (1.9 to 2.0 : 1) all read below 4.5 : 1. We keep the deck’s look for now.

We are working on the first two; the last two are the brand’s look, kept by choice. Until one is fixed, write to us (see below) and tell us what you could not do.

What we checked works

• Pages fit phone screens 360 to 430 pixels wide without scrolling sideways, and text fields are large enough that a phone does not zoom in on them.
• Secondary text — captions, subtitles and small labels in the muted grey — has a contrast of at least 4.5 : 1 against its background, in the light and the dark theme, on the pages we checked, and so has the sign-in page’s switch between signing up and signing in.
• Text in the brand’s lavender — links such as “see all” and “change”, the readiness figure on the hub, and the lavender buttons such as “got it” and the page-not-found screen’s “Home” — has a contrast of at least 4.5 : 1, in the light and the dark theme, on the pages we checked. So have the text of the coloured filter chips and topic tags, the locked items of the menu, the numbers of the objects in describe the scene until they are named, and, in the typing drill, the letters still to type and the words to come.
• Text in the brand’s peach, pink and mint, and in the green and red of right and wrong, has a contrast of at least 4.5 : 1, in the light and the dark theme, on the pages we checked, and so has the text set on those colours, except the white labels of the coloured action buttons listed above. That covers the skill tags of the practice cards; the streak number and the ticks of the week on the hub; the answer buttons of grammar snap and the keys shown on them; the line under an answer in the drills that says whether it was right; the verdict and the score of a mock exam; the red letters under “top confusions” in the analytics; the settings’ danger zone; and the numbers of an object in describe the scene once it is named.
• In the dark theme, text on the pictures and coloured tiles we checked has the contrast WCAG asks: the level badge and the tiles of the home page, the course name on the courses page’s banner, and the “Pro” button of a locked exam card.
• Keyboard focus on links, buttons and fields is shown by an outline or border with a contrast of at least 3 : 1 against the page, in the light and the dark theme, on every page we checked. When a page opens, focus starts in its main content, and a “skip to content” link is there as well.
• Every call to action on the home page is a single link — one press of Tab — and no page we checked puts a button inside a link.
• Each practice drill and game we checked, and the mock exam, has one main heading that names it, so a screen reader can go straight to it.
• In the mock exam, each numbered question in the navigator is announced with whether it is answered or flagged, the current one is announced as current, and moving to another question takes keyboard focus to it.
• Every page declares its language, so a screen reader reads English and Russian pages with the right voice.
• Answers and reviews that an AI model writes for you in the app are labelled as AI-generated, on screen and for screen readers.

How we assessed it

This is a self-assessment, made on 25 September 2026, checked again on 26, 27 and 29 September 2026 and not audited by an independent party. It consisted of automated checks in a browser on the public pages, the signed-in app (hub, practice, courses, exams, analytics, settings, awards), the practice drills and games and the mock exam, at phone and desktop widths and in the light and the dark theme (text contrast, headings, names of buttons and links, labels of form fields, keyboard focus, animation with reduced motion switched on, layout at phone widths).

European Accessibility Act

The operator of wspell is a micro-enterprise. The European Accessibility Act (Directive (EU) 2019/882, Article 4(5)) exempts micro-enterprises that provide services from its accessibility requirements, so we publish this statement voluntarily, and we work to the target above all the same.
