Best Practice 1.4 – Provide meaningful content sequence (Baseline level)
If the content needs to be read in a certain order, ensure the mobile application is designed and coded with the screen layout in a logical order.
Before Rectification | After Rectification |
---|---|
![]() |
![]() |
In this example, the page has been coded so that to go through the header first, then to article content, then to the page title. The sequence is not meaningful to user. | If the screen page is correctly coded, the reading order for screen readers will be from top to bottom and left to right with a meaningful sequence. |
