Retrospective
Closing thoughts and Accessibility Recommendations regarding project next steps and ways to enhance and support more users.
- Embrace Magnification Users by updating Progress Bar Element. The Application could embrace low vision and screen magnification users by aligning critical information more on right side of the screen. The Progress bar percentage information hangs far right in the current design. Magnification users reported not being aware or identify element as a progress bar or aware of its changing without excessive scrolling. A11y recommendation move percentage information to left with other progress label.
- Insurance Collection: multi means of Input data.The current flow only supports the collection of insurance with images of insurance cards. While users can skip providing insurance without an image file or taking a photo. Some users might not have insurance card handy, a working camera or the ability to easily take photos of an insurance card. Experience could support those with hand/arm mobility, low or no vision by allowing insurance data by text-filed inputs.
- Insurance Collection: Users with Learning or Cognitive differences by design with consistent placement Actions in Layout. The 'Skip insurance for now.' Actions was placed after the main Call To Action button which is usually the last element found on the page. Users reported missing such actions and felt would have helped them if they had knew about the option. Consistent Layout design can in particular help users with Cognitive or Learning related differences.
