How to test criterion 11.13 “On each screen, can the features involving movement from or to the device be satisfied in an alternative way (excluding special cases)?”

WCAG references
  • 2.5.4 Motion Actuation (A)

Official methodology to test criterion 11.13

Test 1 (11.13)

iOS and Android
  1. Identify functions on the screen that are triggered by a movement of the device or a gesture towards the device (for example, look for instructions in the interface or in documentation associated with the application that describe this type of triggering).
  2. Check
    • that the functionality can be triggered without movement, for example by activating a button or a link;
    • and that the application provides a method for deactivating motion detection (for example, a parameter in the application).
  3. If this is the case, the criterion is validated.
