# Dokus Accessibility

**Version 2, effective August 17, 2026**

Dokus is built entirely on Apple's native components, which is also what
makes it work with iOS's accessibility features out of the box. This page
summarizes what's supported today.

## VoiceOver

Every screen you need for the app's core tasks, such as adding a document,
viewing one, unlocking with Face ID, sharing, and buying Dokus Plus, is labeled for
VoiceOver. Document cards announce their name and locked state, and Face ID
prompts announce progress and failure out loud.

## Voice Control

Dokus uses standard, system-provided controls throughout, so their spoken
names match what's on screen and they respond to Voice Control commands like
"Tap [name]" with no extra setup.

## Larger Text

The app supports Dynamic Type end to end, including the largest
accessibility text sizes: text and layouts, including onboarding, scale and
reflow instead of truncating.

## Sufficient Contrast

Text uses colors that meet accessible contrast ratios against their
background, in both light and dark mode.

## Dark Interface

Dokus follows your system appearance automatically and is designed for dark
mode from the ground up, so colors, materials, and imagery all adapt.

## Differentiate Without Color

Status is never conveyed by color alone: a locked document shows a lock icon
and label, not just a dimmed tile, and a Face ID error shows a warning icon
alongside the red text.

## Reduced Motion

When you turn on Reduce Motion, Dokus turns off decorative animation, such as
the home screen's card wiggle and add/remove transitions, while staying fully
functional.

## Captions & Audio Descriptions

Not applicable: Dokus has no video or audio content.

## Feedback

Accessibility is an ongoing effort. If something doesn't work well with
assistive technology, tell us: contact@dokus.app.
